[QUOTE="Lynnzhealth, post: 1619845, member: 436056"] I was diagnosed in March 2017 with T2 and I had just turned 69. The Diabetes Educator decided I needed to go on Metformin, but I didn't like it. I found the LCHF lifestyle and started that. I got my A1C down below the cutoff, stopped Metformin and everything else is good. My BG before and after meals is in the good range. The only thing I really miss is not being able to have toast. If I even look at a slice of toast my sugars go sky high. My GP wanted to put me on statins, too, but I said no. I can't understand why most GPs and Diabetes Educators, at least here in Canada, still tell people to not give up any foods, all foods in moderation, and wonder why people's BG goes up and down like a yo-yo. I am very thankful for this forum and all the people who post their journey with diabetes. [/QUOTE]
