High Kevinpotts I went the see the practice nurse today and I told her I'm doing the low carb diet and shown her the levels since doing it and she was pleased and I asked for my hba1c and other levels and she's gave me these.....(all done on 18/5/2016)

Weight - 65kg (now 64kg)
BMI - 20.75
HBA1C - 97 mmol son/l
Blood pressure - 129/80
Total Cholesterol - 8.3
HDL Cholesterol 1.4 mmol/l
LDL Cholesterol - not available
Triglyceride - 4.9 mmol/l
Estimated GFR (ml/min) 790 ml/min

Hope all this helps

I am so pleased for you:)

Some of those blood results are positive and your weight and BMI will really help

Your trigs are high, like mine were nearly 3 months ago but with a strong well formed LCHF diet those should come down (mine are now 1.5) and your HDL should go up (mine are now 2.0).... Keep going:)


Diagnosed 13/4/16: T2, no meds, HbA1c 53, FBG 12.6, Trigs 3.6, HDL .75, LDL 4.0, BP 169/95, 13st 8lbs, waist 34" (2012 - 17st 7lbs, w 42").

15/6/16: FBG AV 4.6, Trigs 1.5, HDL 2.0, LDL 3.0, BP 112/68, BPM 66, 11st 5lbs, waist 30", PWV 7.0. Lifelong migraines and hay fever gone.

Regime: 20g LCHF, run 1 mile daily, weekly fasting.

Yeeees!! Keep going, you're moving in the right direction. Keep your mind strong, your diet well formed and strict and you will continue to see those numbers drop in my experience:)

Have a light brekkie, just protein and fat, say an egg (of any type) with some seeds or avocado, but of course you have to have those in the larder:)

Ahhh...I see...be careful.

Personally I take two supplements NuZest's Good Green Stuff and Clean LeannProtein in water with chia seeds, soluble vit c and 800 ml, of water and a bit of salt (half teaspoon) for my breakfast and that keeps me easily go to lunch at 1pm, so I effectively only eat two "proper" meals per day, but it works for me:)!

Emmmm... I wonder why not? Worth asking. The Good Clean Protein is not whey (animal) it is 100% European golden pea Perrin, tastes great and really easy in the stomach as is the Good Green Stuff:)
