[QUOTE="Pipp, post: 1179680, member: 100904"] Thank you [USER=258123]@muzza3[/USER] I am glad that my posts have been of use to you, and hope that after your few weeks off you can get back on track. Important to nip problems in the bud, before they get full blown. So good luck, and please keep on posting about your progress. It helps others see that long term maintenence is the key to good management. My plan is to stay with Low Carbing, but have minimal amounts of fat. I have been eating a lot of cheese and nuts, so think it is the weight gain that has caused the BG increase. A sort of mini fast for the first few weeks, increasing amount of non-starchy veg. Also to only eat between 11am and 7pm. Drink plenty of water and green mint tea, especially during the 16 hour fasting window. Reassess after 3 weeks. Testing more regularly. I have noticed that although the levels are under 7 two hours after meals, they sometimes have increased to between 7.5 to 7.9 three hours after eating. Not sure what that is about. I am not ruling out doing a couple of weeks total food replacement. Will see how I get on intermittent fasting first. My GP is aware of what I am doing, and is supporting my decisions, so will keep him informed. He also offered Metformin, as although the HbA1c was, at 43, just into pre-diabetic range, he says it will help with insulin resistance problem. I note that you have gained 2.5kg, [USER=258123]@muzza3[/USER] . I usually have measured my weight in kg too, but think I will revert to stones and pounds, because if I said I gained 3kg, I could fool myself into thinking that is not as bad as saying I gained half a stone.;) [/QUOTE]
