[QUOTE="Sam50, post: 1748554, member: 419035"] hello @Hughie2 and welcome to the forum :) you will find lots of helpful advice on here. My Hubby was diagnosed last summer as T2 with an HbA1c of around 93 again picked up in routine tests. He had got that down to 50 something (can't quite remember off the top of my head) at his next test in November/December and is due another where it will hopefully be in the 40s. He has been low carbing since around July last year and we are both totally convinced on the benefits.Not just for blood sugar control but also weight loss. Low carbing takes the weight from your middle and around internal organs where you don't want it. He has lost 2 stone since last July and because I ate the same way I also lost 2.5 stone. He's now moaning because I've been shopping for a new wardrobe :happy: The positives for me have been no need to use any asthma meds and my IBS has vanished. It's a very healthy way to eat and I have tons more energy. I recommend that you read The Obesity Code by Dr Jason Fung as it will give you a good understanding of carbs/sugar/insulin and how our bodies deal with it all. He also speaks a lot about the usefulness of fasting (not as drastic as it sounds) Good luck-sounds like you have already made a very positive start to tackling the problem. x [/QUOTE]
