[QUOTE="CherryAA, post: 1475812, member: 327005"] Hi John, I adopted LCHF the day I was diagnosed . I was diagnosed with a reading of18.4 In the following 7 days I ate on average 917 calories 38 g of carbs, 60 protein, 58 fat. I also walked on average10,000 paces per day, spending at least half an hour walking after every meal. My BS came down by slightly more than 1 mmol pr day so that by the end of week 1, I was starting to record single digit figures. Knowing what I know now, it would have been even more successful with only 20g of carbs, which is my current food strategy. In the limited time available if you opt for practically zero carbs for the next week, you might find you can get your numbers into single digits by the appointment date. do you have an appointment time? many of us find that the measurements are high in the morning but go down in the afternoon, so probably the later in the day the better, preferably having walked the10,000 paces first. Good luck I did not take any medications, you have already got the benefits from metformin so you might be able to present a much better profile next week if not another carb crosses your lips between now and then !
