so first let me say hello.
I have been lurking this forum since early november when I was diagnosed with T2 with an hba1c of over 100.
i was a carb monster... sometimes upto 400g per day ! so bad with hindsight.
but no more. since reading this forum, I have followed the low carb advice... bought a meter...started on metformin 4x500mg... and cut down on the booze.
i'm not really following the nhs diet advice. low carbs and not worrying about fat. plenty of raw/unprocessed food.
seems to be working. losing 2lb a week
so thanks for the forum and the info. it is invaluable
i also take vit b and magnesium. not sure if they are helping
