I am so relieved to see the information being put forward in the various threads re importance of diet and exercise to control diabetes.
I am type 2 and was diagnosed about 3 years ago. I was originally on metformin 850 twice a day but am now on 500 twice a day. Although I have been 'obese' for some years recently my weight has gone up and my last HbAIc (end Feb) was 7.4 - I am being threatened with increased metformin. I am reasonably active (martial arts) but this is obviously not enough. I am going to try low carb and feel supported (even though I don't know any of you) by this discussion group.
My weight is 15st 2lbs and I am 5'7". I'll use this forum to spur me on!
