[QUOTE="Wizbang, post: 2011329, member: 379700"] Diagnosed with Type 2 2011 and went on Metformin. Weight 160lbs. HBA1c=48. Stopped Metformin in 2017 as I was fed up with "moments" Last June (wt 160lbs HbA1c=42: I know -not that bad!). Put myself on low carb/Newcastle diet. By September my weight was down to 137 lbs; HbA1c=38 and regular fasting bg=5.8. My annual check is due April so will be really hoping that all is well and I am in "remission". Have cut all simple carbs (white pasta, rice, potatoes most bread). Bread is now a "treat" - good sourdough or multigrain. I have also been going to a Pilates class and a body toning class so doing 2 hours quite intense exercise a week. It works for me. I put some back on over Christmas but have kept at least 22 lbs off. Have really changed my diet and have to say the combination of Diabetes UK low carb and Micheal Mosley works for me. My blood pressure also came down so no longer take BP medication :)!. Not on Diabetes Medication. [/QUOTE]
