I've been doing less protein shakes. My protein powder doesn't have a whole lot of carbs though - I checked. I've just resigned myself to highs after exercise. My endocrinologist said he won't discourage me from working out. I've noticed as time goes on that an hour or two later, I drop like...

Type 2 diabetes for a year and a-half. American but I prefer this forum because it aligns with my own personal beliefs on dieting. Endocrinologist just put me on mealtime insulin because Farxiga became really unaffordable for me (****** insurance) but it also worked really well. Doctor keeps...

I was diagnosed a year ago with type 2. For three months, I successfully controlled my diabetes with diet and exercise. Exercising would bring my sugars down - about 20-30 points. Lately though the opposite happens- my sugars spike anywhere from 20-60 points after exercise. I exercise 3-5 times...

Yes I'm testing 3-4 times a day: fasting, post meal at midday, and post workout. I'm pretty active - working out 3-5 times a week for 30-60 minutes at a time

I I test 3-4 times a day. High fasting levels, decent levels around midday, high levels after workout. My highs are between high 100's and low 200's. My midday levels are 120's. Workouts last 30 minutes to an hour and include both cardio and weight lifting I'm testing 3-4 times a day. High...

I'm about average as far as weight goes. It's gone up a little but my body fat has gone down.

Doctor probably hasn't thought of LADA. Can you explain what that is? A1C 3 months: 6.5% 6 months: 8.4% 10 months: 7.5% Medication: gluceuretic farxiga 10 mg a day Breakfast: coconut flour pancakes or almond flour muffins with some sort of protein Lunch: salad and dark chocolate for dessert...

Diagnosed almost a year ago. Switched to a low carb diet and started hitting the gym pretty hard. I've gained weight but lost body fat which I think is ok? My first A1C dropped drastically with diet and exercise after the months but after six it shot way up (no changes to diet or exercise). I'm...
