[QUOTE="jjraak, post: 1966188, member: 493719"] Hi Jenny, and well done for the weight loss. As for ''reversing'...a lot of discussion about what that actually means. For me, T2D is an intolerance to carbs at its most basic. You can cure or reverse it, I suppose just like someone with a nut allergy can cure or reverse their illness by Not Eating nuts. But it's not really a cure. For T2D, no matter how well you manage your diet or lower your HBA1c, you can never go back to your old way of eating whatever food you fancy, sadly. However, you'll see plenty of posts about how many manage to adapt and live pretty much normally, without returning to their old habits of eating higher carbs. Do look around and as [USER=401801]@JoKalsbeek[/USER] says, ask questions. it's a daunting task understanding all that diabetes entails, but believe me, there are many on here, able and willing to guide you every step of the way, on your journey.
