@Pipp not really following the steps, but I did reduced my carb substantially to 150g-200g/day, cut down by 50%.
I have much to learn from you in reversal of diabetes, but I heard that it is mainly suitable for patients with 10 year or less, so I am not so sure if the low carb program can help...
Thanks for your great welcome post, very helpful. I had read low carb program 1 year ago, and started to reduce my carb daily, also tried to reverse my diabetes. Somehow I had problems to maintain my BG level, so will try to be more careful about BG level, metformin dose.
