Yep! Being diagnosed as a T2 so young was definitely out of the blue, I was put on metformin but eventually stopped as I could control my numbers through my diet. I do try to eat low carb but definitely not as low as the conventional low carb diet.. right now the problem seems to lie with my...

Hi! No, im currently not on any medication and im not on any particular diet, just generally watching what i should and shouldnt eat according to my after meal numbers

Also wanted to mention that I work out regularly (cardio and weight lifting) at least 6 times per week. And I am and have been at a normal weight (49 kg 160 cm)

Have been T2 for about 3 years now, was diagnosed very young (17 yrs) but have never been overweight or particularly unhealthy. Have been managing my bg and have managed to keep my morning bg under 5.7. However, this month(s) or so I have been noticing that my morning bg has gone up to 6.7...

I was craving some junk food and when I start I can't stop... I had some crackers, chocolate, brownies, fruit and my usual dinner of meat and vege without rice.. I was expecting my bg levels to go real high but it was 4.3 just now?? Is this normal?

Thanks for the info, this is my first time hearing about MODY, will definitely look mor into it.

OK! Thanks!

Thank you!

But I'm still on metformin, hoping to stop it altogether. My hba1c before was 9.6%,

Thanks!

Also, a little more info, I'm currently on 500mg metformin slow release, once per day. My fasting bg levels are around 4.5-5, and the rest depends on what I'm eating, though I have switched to a low carb diet, well, lower than before.

Hi, I was diagnosed with T2D about a month ago. A little info about myself, I'm under 20 years ago, arguably young for t2d, and I am at a healthy weight, with a bmi of 19. My hba1c was at 9.6%! I was obviously shocked as my eating habits are quite normal, no different from my friends or family...
