I was diagnosed type 2 in May 2018 at 48. I’ve followed low carb diet (60-80g of carbs per day) and my latest HbA1c is 40. My weight has dropped from 78.8kg to 70.2kg, and my clothes size (top and bottom) is the same as when I met my husband in 1985! I’ve just bought my first pair of size 12 jeans in over 30 years! Nice side effect of getting healthy!

I’m healthier as a diabetic than a non-diabetic. It makes you so much more aware of what you are eating.

Very well done! I agree, I’m way more healthy now than I was as a non diabetic!
 
Same here...! Quite happy for you! :) (Clothes shopping suddenly isn't the nightmare it once was, haha.) I wouldn't fit in my wedding dress now, I'm too light. ;) And feeling better than I have in years.
 
Absolutely brilliant, well done!
