I've found it beneficial, or even life changing. My first ever HBA1c back in April was 95 / 10.8% when I was diagnosed and was given a choice of either starting metformin that day or trying to exercise and diet control and coming back in 3 months for another blood test. Since that time I've gone...

Higher 7.2 this morning, but had a homemade curry and a bit of rice for dinner yesterday so that's probably it.

+1 for the disproportionate effect on carbs. I made the mistake of having 2 weetabix which should have been around 26g carbs. My blood sugar spiked much much higher than a full roast dinner I've eaten before, with more overall carb intake in it. Although it also depends on what you eat with...

First time having white bread (garlic bread) and chicken soup since getting diagnosed just over 2 months ago.. Actually surprised I only spiked to around 9.5 and jumped into my evening cycling/weights for a workout to drop it down fast. Breakfast was scrambled eggs, lunch a few mixed nuts.

4.8 after a few days waking in the 6's

I usually swap arms, mainly because I leave one on overnight to 'bed in' before the new sensor starts. I had some issues with it un-sticking after a few days. But I've found using patches to put over the Libre 2 really good. I got some free ones with a sensor from amazon as a sample and I've...

Do you have access to your medical/test results via the NHS app? You should be able to see the tests and results, dates etc. yourself

5.4 this morning :)

5.9 this morning :)

4.5 this morning, stopping eating around 6.30pm the evening before really working well

Bang on 5.0 this morning :)

Just a small update, I had my HBA1c back last week and it was 59. Pretty happy considering It started at 95 and It hasn't been 3 months. It actually took around a month to get to around 'normal' levels after I was diagnosed and started dieting anyway so I'm assuming it'll drop even further in...

Woke up to a 4.8 this morning, recently the mornings have been pretty good.

Thanks for the comments! when I spoke to the dietician we spoke about the weight loss will eventually slow down and get more difficult, the NHS program offers support, advice and monitoring from professionals over a 12 month period so I preferred that option rather than doing it all myself and...

Thank you :) It's good to know and encouraging that keto is sustainable long term, out of anything I think Id prefer that the most, I do love a good steak and eggs!
