      You need a source of protein really, you can get it from legumes, if you eat mostly carbs they'll get stored as fat just because your body won't get through it. Eating lots of carbs can also make you store water weight because carbs break down into sugar.

      I would have a few more carbs and ome form of Protein because if you only eat that a day (above daily meals) your going to soon start feeling faint and looking ill. My mum is the same but she does eat cottage cheese. Have you tried beanfeast? what about soup?

      Re type 2 i would ask your dr for a test have you had a thyroid check?

      3lb loss is still a loss some people don't even lose that a month even with the tablets x

    Id be happy with 3lbs. If you loose it too quick you are more likely have saggy skin.

    are you able to do a bit of exercise? Even a little walking can help
