[QUOTE="Swiggy, post: 2355379, member: 374098"] Update. hba1c 69, very disappointed but expected as I monitor after every meal. Weight loss 8lbs not good after year of lchf. LDL 3.4 HDL 1.0 Triglycerides 1.2 Doc didn't want to give me the figures but I pestered her for them. I have no idea how to interpret them. Good news is that fibroscan result is normal which means no scarring to my liver (but there's fat in there). Liver enzymes are normal too. Plan now is to have the c-peptide test and discuss with GP. Liver clinic doctor wants me on diabetic medication asap but I hate the thought of that. My sugars are still high. Currently 16.4 fasting since 8pm yesterday. Dinner yesterday was three slices of back bacon cooked in foil in oven and two eggs fried in butter. I had 50g Wensleydale cheese at lunchtime and drank water and one cup of coffee with milk. Readings were 13.8 fasting and before eating cheese, 15.0 after 2 hrs, 16.3 before eggs and bacon, 17.1 2hrs after eggs and bacon. I don't understand... [/QUOTE]
