How much more sugary stuff do I have to eat before I finally get diabetes? I need it so I can have Byetta.?



I _need_ to have diabetes because my doctor won't let me have Byetta just for weight loss. Now I know everyone who answers this is going to say, stupid fat person should just eat right and exercise. But it doesn't matter how perfectly I eat, or how much I exercise. I've already tried more diets than you can imagine. No, really. I've tried that one too. Yup, and that one, so don't bother telling me how I just haven't done enough of your version of eating right and exercizing. I just need to know how much longer I have to keep shovelling sugary crap into my gullet before they will let me have the Byetta.

Sorry, another preacher for the choir here. I'm thinking everything thats just been said.
Unless you are trying to kill yourself?

OK Here is a FOOLPROOF way to lose weight. I know you have said you have tried everything BUT I swear to you this WILL WORK and QUICKLY. There will be a lot of naysayers here, but its certainly a lot safer than what you want. ATKINS DIET. Mercilessly restrict your carbs - NO Bread, rice, cereal, pasta, wheat, flour, fruit, only some veggies (onion, brocolli, cauliflower, zucchini, some pumpkin, some tomato, cucumber, lettuce, cabbage, etc.) plenty of meat, proteins, eggs cheese, cream, even fatty chicken skin is ok lol.
If it is done properly, Your body will burn fat like its going out of business. This is because you won't have any carbs to convert to sugars. When you get to a suitable weight which won't take long at all,THEN you gradually reintroduce your carb foods beginning with fruits and later your low GI breads and cereals until you are maintaining your weight and not losing or gaining. Look up the information online, after a day or two restricting carbs you stop craving them, which helps. And again, you don't give up food forever, just long enough to whip your body into shape and then reintroduce the HEALTHY carbs. Don't worry about cholesterol on this diet - your body burns fats and this naturally will diminish your cholesterol levels.
It is better to see a doctor before you embark on this diet (have your kidneys checked first), but if you are at the point where you are grasping at extreme options, just go for it. Source(s): It does work! Diet prescribed by medical doctor which successful results. Carbs arent cut out forever - just until body kicks into gear.
Diabetes is not the way to go. It damages your eyes, kidneys and nerves. Why don't you ask the doctor for weight loss medication such as -Meridia. If you use Byetta, you have to check your blood sugar all the time and if it gets to low you can die. not the best way to lose weight. Byetta IS NOT FOR WEIGHT LOSS!!!!!!!
You do realize diabetes is dangerous right? And a lot of type 2 diabetics are overweight, even while on medication? You need to find another way to lose weight. This is not healthy or smart. Trust me. I am a type 1 diabetic. I wouldn't wish this on anyone.
Diabetic who eats right, exercises and keeps blood sugar under control.
Been there. Now that I have diabetes, I'd love to not have it. But, here's the thing. Insulin resistance can make it very hard to lose weight, and you don't have to have diabetes to have an insulin resistance problem.

Suggestion -- log everything you eat for a week, and eat sensibly. Then take that log to your doctor and ask to be tested for insulin resistance and other metabolic disorders. Weight issues are also often related to thyroid problems. If your doctor won't listen and help you, it's time for a new doctor. It's your doctor's job to listen to you and do something to help you.

Eating sugary stuff may never give you diabetes, but it's going to pack on the weight. Another very good possibility is that even if you develop diabetes, Byetta may not be what's prescribed for you. It's usually prescribed when oral diabetes meds aren't working well enough. Then it's taken in combination with an oral med such as metformin (Glucophage).

Good luck.

ADDED: You might not lose any weight with Byetta even if you get it. 30 pounds in a month? My doctor did prescribe Byetta for me. I've been using it for three weeks. No more than 1,200 calories per day, exercising every day. I've lost 6 pounds in three weeks.

I know how frustrated you are. But focusing on a drug that MIGHT cause weight loss as a side effect isn't even a logical answer. You know you have real health issues here. Why haven't you fired the doctors who won't listen, understand, and help and found a new doctor?

Please take care of yourself. I hope you find your solutions soon.

I believe you totally, but the truth is the truth. Planning to get diabetes is not the way to go. It could take YEARS to become diabetic, IF you ever do. In the meantime, stuffing yourself with sugar is going to pack on even more pounds. You NEED a doctor who will help you find out WHY you can't lose weight.

Surely you know that the actual question you started out with about "how much more sugary stuff" is a question that has no answer. So why did you post it?

You have two choices:
1) You can keep this up and put yourself in even worse shape, or
2) You can stop this temper tantrum and find a good doctor who can and will help you.

I've been where you are, and I've been posting here tonight trying to help you. You don't want to hear it. Cut the temper tantrum or just look in a mirror and tell yourself what you want to hear.

Good luck.
