[QUOTE="Prem51, post: 2011552, member: 209498"] I started fasting after being diagnosed Type 2 after a HbA1c test in September 2015. I ate one small meal a day after 7pm, I wasn't counting carbs but probably between 30 - 100g carbs a day. I didn't drink any alcohol for first 3 months. At start on 7/9/2015 I was 173 lbs, BMI 28.4 (overweight), HbA1c 49 (diabetic). At 3 month retest on 5/11/2015 I was 150 lbs, BMI 23.5 (overweight), HbA1c 44 (pre-diabetic). At 12 month retest on 1/9/2016 I was 135 lbs BMI 21.4 (healthy weight), HbA1c (non-diabetic). Since then as I wasn't fasting my weight, BMI and HbA1c have crept up. I started fasting again this year on 14/1/2019, again just eating one meal, though not as small as before, after 7pm, probably 100 - 120 g carbs a day. At start on 14/1/19 I was 156.6 lbs, Visceral Fat 11, BMI 25 (overweight). Today 23/3/19 I am 144.2 lbs, Visceral Fat 8, BMI 21.4 (healthy weight). I intend to continue with the fast until Easter (I've also given up alcohol for Lent), and hope to get below 140 lbs. I have not had to take any diabetic meds. I don't have any 'before and after' pics - I'm not photogenic! :bag: [/QUOTE]
