Good weight loss tips for a 19 year old girl that is borderline diabetic? -

i found out yesterday that i am borderline diabetic, my doctor said even 10-15 lbs might help. i have been working out and watching what i eat for months anyways because i know i am overweight. it just doesnt seem to be working. does anyone have any ideas?

Have a clear soup [ miso maybe ] and a salad before lunch and dinner.Not too much dressing.Watch out for fried foods.Count your calories AND carbs per meal and per snack.Shoot for 60 carbs per meal and 15 carbs for 3 snacks a day.Load up on veggies.Learn the carb counts of varies foods.Example : Breakfast :2 scrambled eggs with onions, green pepper and one piece of ham.1 orange.Snack : Low fat yogurtLunch : Clear soup, salad with low fat meat and cheese.V8 juiceSnack:a small handful of almonds and one fruit .Dinner : Clear soup, Salad, 3-4 oz protein,two carb servings [ 1 cup potatoes or a cup rice or a cup beans or corn ]Snack :a brownie or cookie and milk.Good luck.

walk walk walk and get your tsh 3 and tsh4 checked if those hormone levels aren t right then it makes it a lot harder to lose weight

my sister who is 25 just lost 35 pnds and she is type 1 diabetic meaning insulin depandant. She has always had a hard time losing weight with this disease. She actually saw a nutritionist about what type of foods to eat and exercises to do to lose weight. The healthy way of course. She plays tennis swims jogs anything vigourous and cardio. I am not sure what she was told to eat but for proper healthy weight loss I reccomend you do what she did cause it is working she looks great.
