Are you still on diamicron or other diabetes medication?
If you're reducing your carb intake, please keep a very close eye on your blood sugars!
Diamicron can cause you to go too low, so always keep something sugary on hand in case you go hypo.
Btw, you can't actually reverse diabetes. Being in remission means you have got down to normal levels of blood glucose. The diabetes is still there but it isn't causing any harm as long as you keep your diet etc. the same.

Remission can be achieved by many T2s who adopt a low carb diet & a less sedentary lifestyle.
If you remove the carbs from your diet then glucose levels can run as low as a non-diabetic so risk of complications is reduced accordingly.
To maintain remission this diet/behaviour must be for life.
There are a small subset of T2s, normally obese, who can achieve a reversal of their T2 through large weight loss especially with a low diagnostic level & short duration of the disease.
This means they can pass all 3 diagnostic tests, FBG, A1c & OGTT.
These still need to remain diligent however with the knowledge they possess the trigger.
I prefer to use recovering or in recovery, in the same context as alcoholics use.There's a terminology war between terms like remission & reversal.
Ahh, but reversal implies reversal of any ill effects, which doesn't tend to happen. It also carries the risk of the media and population assuming it is purely down to the individual if they want not to be diabetic and diabetes is therefore some sort of lazy, gluttonous choice. I think, politically, it is a dangerous word. I do like @Riva_Roxaban 's use of 'recovery' though.There's a terminology war between terms like remission & reversal.

Going very low carb has also put my asthma into remission
