I Want to Lose Weight

I was always in shape in high school, but after kids I’ve slacked off. I’m 5”6 and weigh around 190. I’d like to lose 30 pounds over the course of this year. Always feel ugly and unattractive. And not being comfortable with my body leads to marital issues sometimes.

The best way I have found to lose weight is low sugar, low carb. And snack on raw veggies, even if it's dipped in ranch or something. Ranch is low carb. I usually have steak and salad for dinner

@swandfriends sounds great I wouldn’t think ranch would be good for dieting lol. I’m getting concerned I could become diabetic

Oh yeah, Im pretty sure I could be diabetic. High blood sugar. I pee a lot, when I do low carb, I don't have to pee all the time. I never really stick with the low carb every single day. But even if I stick with it semi-regularly, it helps a lot

@swandfriends I only pee a few times a day I didn’t know diabetes was linked to that. I’m about to eat as if I was bad along it scares me
