Eating 1200 cals a day and still overweight

Wondereall! Omg, we have so much in common! (Even the digestion problem)I could have written your story! We are about the same size, same original weight, same weight loss plateau, similar workout routine, same diet, calories, etc. I had gained a lot of weight during covid and right now have lost almost 70 pounds. Sadly, I’m now at another plateau. I have 30 more pounds to lose, though I get a lot of comments now that I’m thin, but not really. Just thinner.

I also have type 1 diabetes and insulin packs on the pounds. I consulted with my endocrinologist’s office nutritionist and she gave me some good suggestions that helped, but I’ve stalled in my weight loss AGAIN! It’s infuriating. She says I’ve done a great job, but I can’t slack off now.

I hope you get some good responses. My ideas include: shaking up my workout and doing something completely different. I want to learn pickleball, but I have tennis elbow. It’s holding me back. But, I know that exercise is just part of it. It’s mainly diet. Only, my diet is tight and right……I can only surmise that an unconventional fasting intervention might have some impact……? I might PM my nutritionist and run it by her. I only want something safe and sustainable.

Thank you so much for your kind words celia16 and sorry to hear that you have experienced tough times too! If you don't mind me asking, do you follow any particular diet or lifestyle at the moment? I'm considering the Mediterranean diet as it's anti-inflammatory.
