My weight loss journey

Posted By Cat Lady

"My weight loss journey"

About: Derbyshire Community Health Services NHS Foundation Trust / Live Life Better Derbyshire

(as the patient),

I had put on more weight following a diabetes diagnosis. Have had no diabetes course though and was struggling with my blood sugar.

I saw the Health Trainer. She showed me some really valuable advice on my food ratios and I lost half a stone in 2 weeks.

She also referred me onto the weight loss group, which I have started.

My blood sugar issues have not been resolved, but the weight loss adviser has told me about a diabetes course, that I really need to be referred to.
