At diagnosis I was off the meter (30+), and it was over a month before I was regularly in single figures - and that was with using direct injection insulin to force it down.Also when low carbing, the weight (for me) comes off in stages; you might lose several pounds over several days, then reach a plateau where nothing much happens for up to 3 weeks as your body adjusts, then some more comes off again. I've put a stone on in just 10 days over Christmas (eating around 20g extra daily carbs) which is disappointing, but will get it back off with LCHF and increased exercise.</blockquote>
