We’ve learned that diets are all the same when it comes to helping people/you lose weight.
That doesn’t mean there’s no difference between diets, but it does mean that if you’re looking just to lose weight, then you’re best deciding which diet you will be most likely to stick to.
A review of 48 different diet trials showed that there was no real difference in terms of weight loss as the calorie limits were all roughly equal. |

Recently, it was reported that a non-diabetic teenager died after taking insulin in what was believed may have been an attempt to lose weight.
Taking insulin does not help with weight loss. However, missing insulin shots has been used as a very risky way of reducing weight by people with type 1 diabetes. |

Diabetes Forum member summer dreamer found it took 2 months of sticking to a diet before the weight started to come down. |
