[QUOTE="marathonmona, post: 2164261, member: 80088"] Bit of background: T2, diagnosed 5 years ago with Hb of 83, managed to reduce in 2017 to 51 with low carbing, hit self destruct button and in early Sep Hb came back at 84! Yikes... Anyway. I spent September resetting my eating habits and focusing on: no binging, less sugar and eating three meals a day. This was followed by trying to eat fewer carbs. Result: a weight loss of 8 pounds. Currently I’m tracking my carbs and eating no more than 50 grams a day (using MFP). Today marks day 11. I’ve lost two more lbs. I’ve also decided to start testing again and bought the starter Codefree kit. I’ve only managed some random tests so far (waiting for more strips and lancets) and they’re coming back as 10 average... My question is: how long until I see some more decent blood sugars? I know everyone’s different but I was really hoping to see more single figures with the low carbing. Or maybe I’m just being impatient; after all, who knows how high my bloods were before I started low carbing... Thanks in advance for your help! [/QUOTE]
