[QUOTE="Shawn14564, post: 2129011, member: 514161"] I could be wrong, (I see the dietitian today), but I am of the opinion that my excess fat (specifically around the pancreas) is the reason for my insulin resistance, and that drastically reducing that fat (and adding skeletal muscle) may help kick my pancreas into action. Do you think after I lose the weight on my low calorie diet, it’s possible that my FBG will be “normal”, and I can switch to a level of calories to maintain my new weight and thus my normal blood sugar levels? It would be solely a calorie restriction (at a weight maintenance level, not a deficit), with no foods off limits, just excess calories off limits. I know, it may be a bit of wishful thinking, but one can hope. [/QUOTE]
