I was diagnosed type 2 on christmas eve with a HbA1c of 64
Luckily I was pointed in the direction of this site and after a lot of reading decided to give the low carb a go. It was like a few people had said tough for the first few weeks but I am glad I managed to stick it out.
Since christmas i have managed to get my weight down from 14st 4 to 12st 6 and more importantly my HbA1c down to 43.
This has been achieved by just cutting the carbs down doing a bit more walking and no medication. My dogs look fitter too.
So it goes to prove that low carb is definitely worth the effort.
