[QUOTE="Pink_Minx, post: 1077582, member: 176956"] I can only echo what everyone else has said and I had the same initial reaction from GP and DN when I told them I was starting LCHF. DN said she'd keep an eye on my cholesterol but didn't actively try to stop me. I went to GP this week to talk about latest HbA1c result and they agreed that I can come off Metformin as the results were so good. He did say it was all down to the weight I've lost rather than LCHF, but as far as I can see it, if it's the cause or effect which has got me off my meds, I'm happy! I've just got to prove it when I go back in four months for the next HbA1c otherwise it's back on the meds for me! So, to sum up, they both know how it happened but aren't yet quite willing to admit it. I'll keep waving the LCHF flag until people start to take notice. Good luck, [USER=267196]@MPH[/USER], you're doing really well! [emoji106] [/QUOTE]
