Hi all ,
Another year another review. This year I wanted to get organised and asked in February to have my blood test results. It has only taken 2 X letters to my GP enclosing SAE's to get them.
So I was diagnosed 4 years ago did the Newcastle diet before finding this forum and since then have been strictly low carb. Over the last year I've been very low carb 10-20 grams per day. Over the last 6 months I've been mainly doing 2 meals a day one about 12 the other 6 or 7 o'clock. I do the occasional 24 hour fast and am stick thin. ( BMI of about 19) I walk 10,000 steps per day and am building up my muscle strength with weights and push ups. Despite my extra careful approach to my health I have exactly the same A1c level as last year. Its OK , dont get me wrong, but all things considered it could be better. I still test multiple times a day. Trying to find things that would work for me and things that dont. Eg Berberin which I took for 12 weeks without any effect that I could detect.
I've uploaded my blood results after taking out any personal / doctors names to comply with this sites rules and would welcome any thoughts about them,
I Have a phone review this Thursday morning .
Wishing you all well in these very strange times...
