Hi, I'm newly diagnosed with T2 and have been reading everything I can find on the subject, particularly this forum as I decided to go down the LCHF route.
Everything seemed to be going OK for the first 2 weeks and I lost 5kg and bloods were in the high 5- high 7 range. However about a week ago I was ill during the night (runs & vomiting) and my blood tests have been in the 10-12 range since. This morning after a breakfast of Total Greek yoghurt, 10 raspberries, sprinkling of brazil nuts, sesame seeds and a couple of tbsp of ground flaxseed, plus a brisk 10min walk down for my paper my bloods shot up to 17.5 from 12.5. I am on 1x500gm Metformin and take 1 fish oil capsule
Am I doing something wrong with this diet? I have very disrupted sleep due to arthritic hip pain( and I think sleep apnoea) . Thanks for any advice.
