It took me altogether from start of October last year until June this year, in that time I lost 61 lbs in weight.
Awesome work!Saw my doctor this morning and was told that I had basically reversed my type 2 diabetes and that now I would no longer be classed as diabetic.
The surgery will still require to check my blood glucose levels every six months or yearly.
Advised to still stick to the diet and the exercise class and to keep up the good work.
Since start of October last year, I have lowered my weight from 17st 13lbs to 14st 1lb., my BMI dropped from 33 to 26,now average weekly blood glucose 5.3, three monthly reading 5.6, HbA1c 38, and blood pressure 129 / 75.

Thanks for all the replies encouraging me to keep up the good work, I will do my best as I am determined to keep the big "D" at bay.
Now I am being kept busy getting ready to move house into a new property, which is on a ground floor, to make it easier for me to contend with the big "D", the arthritis and the poor hearing. Now if I have to have an operation on my feet because of the neuropathy, I will be able to get discharged from hospital without any delays as I will no longer have to contend with stairs to enter my flat. No need for me to end up as a bed blocker stuck in hospital.

Well done to you. I have done the same thing also. I went from a 56 inch waist to 34 inch now I lost 12 stone in weight. I also reversed my diabetes through exercise and diet. Was given metformin medication but never took it. Again well done to you. And keep it up.
If you have a look at what I have written under "Lose Weight" within forum "Weight loss and Dieting" will give you more information on how I managed to do it.
