[QUOTE="jpscloud, post: 2093586, member: 232698"] Hi [USER=337653]@Mrs_A_Wrinkly[/USER] I should also say everyone should talk with their Dr or DN about medications before fasting. My Dr was a bit wary and said I should only fast if I carried out intensive monitoring of blood sugar and blood pressure as I'm on meds for both, but the meds I take are not known to cause hypos. I have never experienced a hypo, even when fasting for 4 and a half days. I have experimented with stopping Januvia and on another occasion metformin, but I'm not yet in a good enough place with diet control to do that. Some people think fasting without good diet control (cutting out carbs and processed food) is not effective, but my experience is different. My system feels great when I fast, I lose weight (but very slowly due to overeating and lapses with carbs on eating days) and I'm seeing better blood sugars and blood pressure overall. [/QUOTE]
