[QUOTE="ickihun, post: 1074957, member: 196960"] Hi [USER=154888]@jaynesmith[/USER] . Your right the best way to be able to reduce your insulin is through weight loss and reduced carbs. I've chosen to do a very low carb diet with full fat but not extra fat. I've been advised to reduce my portion sizes. I've never tried that before. Well not in the last 10-15yrs. I'm currently giving great attention to low carb to form a good habit. Once I'm happy it is natural for me I will tackle portion control, in the same way. Also my exercise regime stopped whilst I was suffering canagliflozin side affects. Now not on it and readdded the 12lb I originally lost. Due to weeing less and less insulin. I'm resuming exercise on saturday with a lively swim. (Hopefully) From there I am hoping to increase exercise to incorporate cycling and minijogs. All have to be achieved in the least stressful way otherwise my bgs increase. This insulin has to go or atleast decrease to half of what I'm taking now. I reduced my insulin to just evening meal 44 units with canagliflozin. Now 30 before breakfast, 30 before dinner and now 36 with supper, all very low carb. My aim is to at least half my needs with portion control and an exercise regime. It's only taken 13yrs to understand my diabetes. Well I'll rephrase that. It's taken me becoming a member of these forums and listening to good practice. :) [/QUOTE]
