I was just wondering if there is anyone out there who has improved their HbA1c levels and /or lost weight WITHOUT using the LCHF method or NEWCASTLE diet.
I have been low-carbing ish and I have lost weight and my blood sugar levels have gone down but I want to try eating what I want (within reason) and just think about calories (not carbs- although I don't plan on going wild) I plan on eating around 1300 cals per day but eating meals that include carbs such as brown pasta, rice etc.
Has anyone lowered their blood sugar and/or lost weight whilst not following the LCHF diet or Newcastle diet? If so please can you tell my what you did /ate.
Low carb is not working for me at the moment. Plus I want to eat strawberries, sweet potatoes and pasta.
Also has anyone with T2 tried Slimming World and had success lowering their HbA1c levels and weight.
hope this makes sense
PS I take metforming
Thank you x
