Type 2
After reading the book, l went to see my diabetic nurse. She was interested but worried so l saw my doctor. I assured him that l would test my blood 3 times a day, and send in my results every week.
After just 2 weeks l came off insulin and after 3 l stopped taking Metformin.
I am now in my fifth week and very happy.
 
That's great news. Very well done and welcome to the forum
 
Incredible achievement, that is some very good work done by you!
May your further journey in the diabetes world be blessed, and the numbers keep on improvoing!

When where you diagnosed btw?

Good luck in the future!
 
Sensational results.
 
It was about 10 years ago, and then an illness 4 years ago meant l had to go on insulin.
 
Brilliant support from your care team as well.
 
It was about 10 years ago.
You mentioned that the nurse was worried, but what was your doctors reaction? Was he sceptical about the diet? Did he think diabetes type 2 could be reversed? What was his reaction?

ARe you going to contine the last 3 weeks? Are you gonna eat a special diet or are you just gonna keep watching over the weight?
 
The doctor was a bit sceptical, but l said that l would record all my readings, three a day, and send him a copy. He was ok with this.
Not sure about the next couple of weeks, but may try the 5/2 diet.
I will watch my weight, but l do like bread and red wine. I haven't had either for 5 weeks.
