Very impressive. Thanks

Thankyou

Just received text message from the surgery saying small trace of protein in urine which i left sample last Wednesday whilst at appointment when told type2. Been following the low carb since then.Problem is I've googled the protein in pee and it suggests to lower protein intake of meat. I don't...

What was your A1C level initially if you don't mind answering please? Mine was 121 and 16.2 bs at confirmation.The thought I could lower my readings as rapidly as you is very appealing

Hi Sarahswim. I was in same position last week and it is a frightening and confusing thing to take in initially. Not helped by lockdown and not being referred to Diabetes seminars you normally would attend.Saying that I've learnt loads on here and 6 days since I was confirmed things seem...

Hi friends. Quick update, Comfortably under 50g carb a day since last Thursday and feeling ok in general.Ordered a meter but due back at specialist Friday and will post numbers. The upset stomach from Metformin has subsided for most part but still a little inconsistent.Move up to 2 a day on...

Thankfully stomach settled somewhat. Just had my evening meal mainly bbq meat and salad very nice,I've eaten well today and haven't felt hungry even after the attack of poops after lunch. Not one slice of bread or wrap. In fact after 3 meals and plenty of water and green mint tea and 1 coke zero...

Cheers

Was thinking about that option as i have seriously bought into the low carb way. Was also thinking it may have been due to sudden increase in salad/veg after a megarich carb and sugar lifestyle? Seems I'm full of questions? Will see what next week's numbers are and take stock.

Will see how go over the weekend and pray it settles. Really want to go for a good long walk but daren't stray away from the WC.

Having few problem post lunch.. Read it may happen on starting Metformin but hoped I'd avoid. Basically it's stomach ache followed by the squits. Not nice and drinking plenty of water. Is Imodium an option or is it a case of just getting used to tablets?

On reading all this knowledge that people have learnt the hard way and are passing on i now starting to understand Carbs and how before diagnosis I took them for granted. Keep saying it but thanks everyone..

Yes just water. I may use it when gym reopens as I feel better on that before workout but reading all this I'm hoping by that time to have numbers down. Had bacon egg and tomato for breakfast washed down with 2nd ever Metformin. I find it bonkers that is better for me than toast cereal and...

More good advice. It's funny you mention the blurry vision as just this last hour started noticing bit of it. Don't think a day and half of healthier eating and one Metformin could trigger this but I'm finding most of my preconceptions are wrong.

Thanks. Started a thread on newly diagnosed board and lots of good input. Certainly feeling better than this time yesterday

Yes I'm getting the drift. Done my shopping and mainly veg fish and meat. The only thing I got wrong was I bought 2 large pots natural yoghurt but didn't realise til home it was reduced fat version. Still a bit shocked how many carbs are in bananas and apples and of course bread. I think I'm...

Not a pain,you are trying to help. I've found it online now but don't know how to send link as not very handy on internet.. just type in maximuscle promax lean and it tells you the ingredients. Lots of strange sounding thing's

Not that I can see. There is something called sucralose sweetener though

100g is 4.6 carb 3.4 of which sugar

That was per 36g serving
