Thank you all for the messages and support. After 9 years on meds and feeling myself slowly going down hill I knew I had to try and do something. I never thought that I could get results like this in so short a time. No Gliclazide yesterday evening so the FG this morning was 7.1 DN said it would...

Hi All, Just had my results back from the DN this morning and well pleased with progress so far. Started LCHF eating on 1st March 2017. The DN is very supportive and amazed at the results. She has now reduced my Gliclazide from 2 x 40g to 1x 40g tablet plus 1 x 25g Alogliptin tablet on a...

Fasting and before lunch, dinner, and just before bedtime.

There are some strange results in this thread so perhaps my recent change to HFLC eating might give another slant to things. 1st March I started the change with my meds of 100mg sitagliptin and 40 mg gliclazide on a morning and another gliclazide at tea time. Weight was 20 stone 5 lb and bg in...

Here is me thinking there was only one 3:30 in a day and it was pm LoL

Thanks for the into @debrasue. I am not on Facebook or Twitter and use an I-pad rarely, preferring a computer which is what I am more used to. I just cannot seem to get the hang of the app type forums rather than the ones I am used to which put the sites into a notice board listing then list the...

Readings today were morning 9.1(late night snacking) plus morning GL dump; pre lunch 7.4; pre tea only 4.7 and just now before bed 5.8. This is a usual day for me except the morning reading is normally around 7 and Lunch around 5-6. Still experimenting a bit with what to eat and how much but no...

Hello to all. I have only been on a self imposed HFLC eating regime since the 1st March 2017 so this is very much "work in progress". I take 1 x 25mg Alogliptin in the morning plus 1 x 40mg Gliclazide with 1 40mg Tablet in the evening. My Gliclazide was doubled when my Hba1c came down from 66 to...

Happy Easter to all. 6.3 this morning with 5.8 before bed last night. Morning Sitagliptin 100mg changed to Alogliptin 25mg on Monday 10th April by the decision of the area diabetes management clinical board!! I started LCHF eating on the 1st March and to date have lost 12Lb 10oz with BS reduced...

A poor 7.8 this morning which I blame on my bedtime cheese treat. Back down to 6.0 two hours after lunch which was a big bowl of veggy chunky soup with some frankfurters in it. Still trying to get my head round how this site works as I have lots of unread messages or notifications. Thanks for...

0745 this morning and 6.7. I had a glass of milk and a little bit of Brie just before bedtime but in the last 3 weeks my morning weekly average is down from 10.4 to 8.1 which is a 25% reduction that I am very pleased with. Total weight loss in 3 weeks is 7 lb 14oz so only another few stone to...

Do not worry about the "preventative antibiotics". I have been taking Trimethoprim @100mg for 5 months and stopped last week. I had a few courses as the infection kept returning after 3-5 days after the courses finished. Had lots of urine tests to determine which antibiotic was best. You can...

6.8 @ 8:15. Must be the cheese I had for supper. Levels are slowly coming down as I lose weight. 3 weeks today cutting carbs down and scales tell me 9.5 lbs lighter.

5.8 this morning which is good for me.
