I am wondering if there is anyone here who has or knows of someone who has
A - lost a lot of weight without going lowish carb
B - gone low carb and not lost much weight.
And if so have they achieved normal HbA1c
Wish I new how to do a poll.
At risk of boring you:
I lost 42kg Newcastle diet
Had normal HbA1c 2+ years
regained around 8kg slight rise in HbA1c but still below diabetes level
Another 4 weeks Newcastle diet lost 5kg
LCHF no weight lost.
HbA1c recently 41.
All above on 1 Metformin a day
Currently off Metformin 6 weeks, testing BG levels with no diabetic readings. Due next HbA1c 2 months time.
Struggling to find weight reduction plan to suit as still need to lose at least 30kg to be a 'healthy weight'.
