6.2. Not bad.

5.7 this morning No hypos last night! eating an hour later seems to have helped with this. Still omitting evening gliclazide.

Thank you I appreciate it. That is easily veganised and I will give it a go! Sounds amazing.

I am doing the fast 800 which is for 12 weeks and then. Increasing the calories back up after that as per the plan. I know 800 is not long term sustainable. This is with input from dsn. They are aware of what I am doing. I am reducing my gliclazide as needed. This diet has greatly improved my...

5.7 this morning. Day 2 of not taking my evening gliclazide

6 this morning! No evening gliclazide yesterday day 1. Started going low last night but not below 3.5. Tried a handful of nuts and a spinach cake (kallo brand, very tasty and low carb/cal) and waited it out and it corrected itself to 4.4 in a hour.

6 on the nose this morning. I’ll take it!

Hi, thank you! that’s an excellent point actually and hadn’t considered that, I’m kind of seeing my body as a science experiment at the moment, tweaking and adding/removing things to see what is going to work long term. All with professional input from the diabetes team although to be honest...

So last night I ended up having strawberry bootlaces (sugar free but 7 carbs each) and a keto bread slice with quorn to counter my hypo at about 9pm. As a result my morning bm was 9.2 and is only now starting to go down. But lesson learned, am stopping evening gliclazide and speaking to dsn next...

Thanks for the reply[emoji18]I’m on metformin and gliclazide, 160mg am and 120mg pm. I’ve had to half the pm dose after a few days of vlcd and now it would seem I need to stop it entirely. Im speaking to my diabetes nurse next week as she was wanting to add lanogliptin (spelling? Not sure I...

Hi, I’m so sorry you’ve been struggling with all of this. I had gastritis for years as a result of being coeliac and undiagnosed. I went for periods of days/weeks of nausea and vomiting, indigestion, upset tummy, constant lump in my throat and it sucked. Since I went gluten free after coeliac...

This explains why they are always trying to shill statins when I see them!

Thank you so much! It’s back up today sadly because I had a hypo last night and had to eat something…But this is a lesson learned- I’m going to stop my evening gliclazide and take it from there. Also will speak to my dsn to let her know.

9.2 on waking, 8.2 just now. Had to treat a hypo last night so that must be why it’s up today

9.2 [emoji30] I had a hypo last night- 3.1. My evening readings had been creeping down since I started fast 800 but this was lowest yet. Had my ‘emergency’ sugar free strawberry bootlaces (7 Carbs) and didn’t shift so had a sandwich (low carb bread and vegan Philly). Went back up to 5.4 after...

Ivv be e been on gliclazide for 3 years -far before the suspected Lada stuff a month ago- I’m waiting for my bloods back for gad antibodies. I don’t think gliclazide is making a blind bit of difference actually as before I went to a&e I was taking it religiously and my bms were my n the 20’s...

Hi all Today I had a win- bm did not go over 5.8 all day! Currently 4.4 just after early dinner Breakfast- black coffee Lunch- quorn, kimchi, vegan Philadelphia and veg in high protein wrap Dinner- beyond meat burger with green veggies and vegan coleslaw. Raspberries and alpro cream...

I have been doing the fast 800 since Monday. I’ve been doing IF and low carb for two months and had some improvement but would still spike around midday despite not eating or doing heavy exercise. I was feeling despondent and decided to try fast 800 remaining low carb Other than one blip in...

Do you have a recipe for the mushroom and fennel soup? Just discovered fennel and I love it!
