[QUOTE="phil1966, post: 788000, member: 144138"] Thanks and well done on your reduction too :) Medication wise, I'm on 2 x Metformin 500 a day (normal ones - I haven't suffered any digestion issues with them) Diet wise, I'm on a very low carb diet (around 20g a day): 20g sounds low, but it's easy to do when you get used to it :) For example, the following is an example of a low carb day for me (I log everything in MyFitnessPal so it's easy to keep track!) Breakfast Bacon, Egg and Mushrooms 1g Carbs Lunch Chicken salad (lettuce, cucumber, mushrooms, spring onions, grated cheese and mayo) Sugar free jelly with double cream 6g Carbs Dinner Gammon and egg with mushrooms and green beans 4g carbs Snacks / Drinks Black Coffee No added sugar squash Cheesestring (for calcium) 1g carbs Total for day: 12g Carbs [/QUOTE]
