Good Day,
I have put on a lot of weight, due to junk food I eat and i just count the carbs has normal.
My nurse is disappointed that I haven't lost any weight and everyone in my class has.
I have always been big, but since quitting fags and emotional issues.
I have turned to junk food and now I have learn't today that am clinically obese (can't stop crying) and the doctor told me to go swimming (since my knees are mashed up)- THANKS FOR YOUR SUPPORT, DOCTOR EVIL!!
Does anyone know if the Cambridge diet has carbs that can be counted???
 - I know it is my fault!

don't know much about the Cambridge diet pall I have read on Wikipedia.........
it would seem that the diet does contain carbs, but it states that its a low amount, which promotes mild ketosis, so not suitable foe type diabetics...........so you could count the carbs, al be it small amounts........I wouldn't personally do this diet due to the mention of mild ketosis......
the main thing to think about is calorie intake, 1500 should take weight off you, even if a man or woman...........I would get advice from the dietician at the diabetic clinic, the GP wont be much help in most cases......
what was your BMI? It probably wont be as bad as you think.......
im no professional though.i have a BMI of 32, but I know why, i eat too much...........

I will go and see the dietician and am cutting down on the treats!
