Thank you :) This forum has helped me immensely, and I hope everyone who gets diagnosed with Diabetes gets directed here.

Thank you so much, means a lot :)

Hello Everyone, I am sharing my results with you all, as this progress would not have been possible without your help. HbA1C went from 9% to 5.6%. I also lost 22 kgs. ALT and AST are within limits too. I need to work on my Cholesterol levels, as they are still out of range, but not by much. I...

Thank you so much! This wouldn't have been possible without the help of you all, so thank you :)

Hi @valann, Thank you :) I am doing quite well now. I hope you're doing well as well. Thank you! I wasn't planning on cheating as such. It was just to mentally prepare myself for what's to come. That's good to hear. It takes effort in the beginning. As an Indian, It was quite hard at the...

It's all thanks to your love and support. This community is wonderful!

You are right. I don't want to compromise my health, and will thus stay away from "cheat" meals. Thank you! I really appreciate it :)

I am feeling quite well now, thank you :) Thank you for sharing the link. I am looking for alternative ingredients to my favourite dishes. It's just a bit hard for me at first, as my diet has mostly been carbs-oriented before this. I'm happy with the progress I am making mentally. With time...

Dear @Goonergal, @Debandez, @BravoKilo, @Outlier, @valann, and @MrsA2, Thank you all for your responses. Apologies for the delay in response; I was down with a fever. I planned to reply to each one of you separately but that would have been repetitive for the most part, so I decided against it...

Dear @all, First of all, thank you for all the help thus far. On this journey of mine, I am learning new things every day and checking my sensitivity to fruits every day. Today, I came across a video from Dr. Jason Fung, where he talks about how fructose is bad for us and that we should avoid...

Dear @valann, Thank you! Yes, I am in a much better place now and taking things positively. You're absolutely right. It was a blessing that I ended up here and people gave me their time and attention to resolve my queries. Thanks again!

Dear @Aishia, I got diagnosed with Type2 Diabetes a week or so ago. I was asked by the doctor to take Metformin ER. I was reluctant to take it. A friend of mine suggested me this forum and people here have helped me a lot. Neither am I a doctor nor experienced at this. So, I am just going to...

Dear @valann, Thank you for your message. Yes, I am well informed on that now. Thank you for telling me; I thought the 2 hours start after you finish. Moving forward, I will time it as per your instructions. Thank you so much! It is all thanks to you people for guiding me. Otherwise, I will...

Dear @Debandez, Thank you for a quick response. Alright, that's a relief, as I was a bit worried about the fluctuations. For the FBS, I am taking the average reading of 87. I also did the glucose PP test. I did two to be sure and the results were: 115 and 120 (mg/dl). I have also lost quite a...

Dear @valann, @Debandez, and everyone else, I bought a blood glucose monitor Dr. Morepen BG-03, and have thus far just checked my fasting blood sugar. I was told by the shopkeeper that it would show the readings in the range of +-10. So, as a novice, I took 3 readings, and they came out to be...

Hello @MrsA2, I believe it is: OD: once a day BD: twice a day TDS: three times a day

Hello Everyone, I have a question: Is it okay to consume sodium benzoate as part of a medicine? Thank you so much for all the help. I look forward to hearing from you :)

Hello Everyone, I came across this talk by Dr. Neal Barnard at Google (The Power of Nutrition for Health). There, he is supporting the idea of plant-based diet with no animal products and oils. What are your views on the topic? I am a vegetarian already, so his diet is not that difficult for...

Dear @MrsA2, Thank you for your message. That's so good to hear. Yes, It definitely is easy to plan meals, as I am tending more toward one meal a day. I just have to convince my mother who is super worried about this. You know mothers - they care a lot about their child's health and well-being...
