Bit of a land-mark day today... since confirmed diagnosed T2 on 13th July I've now dropped a clear 10kg!
Got to thank this forum with it's friendly moderators and members for their help freely given. You've kept me on the 'keto straight and narrow' by straight talking when I could have strayed, you've inspired me with keto friendly tips and advice, and most importantly I feel you've convinced me that changing my diet could keep me off that drug treadmill of ever higher doses of medicine to control BG.
10kg might not be such a big deal, except it's inspired my husband into dropping 8kg too.
Don't think I've knowingly gone over 20g of carbs a day since that first week after I was diagnosed, and I've now got an arsenal of tried and tested foods, with new recipes a few times a week to keep us interested.
My 3 month blood test will be due over the next few weeks and I can't wait for the results.
Life felt so daunting, but that soon passed when results started to be noticed!
Thank you everyone
