Hey all. So after a month of dieting, my HbA1C has gone from 55 to 49! But the doctor now wants to put me on Metformin. I'd rather wait another month or two, as I have lost 6kg, a little more than 5% of body weight, and am feeling much better. I will take the stuff if he insists. Any views ?
I have 6 weeks left on the 800 cal diet and then i go onto a low carb maintenance programme. (lots of fish, unsweetened dairy, broccoli, eggs and lean protein with veg and the odd small low GI bit of carb every so often)
