[QUOTE="ianf0ster, post: 2305929, member: 506169"] Many diabetes specialists (usually low carb sceptics) claim that it is all about weight loss, however there is some evidence to the contrary from several Doctors with actual Low Carb practices. That is that in most cases patients both lose weight and reduce their Blood Glucose so that by the time an new HbA1C is done both are lower. However there are some (usually relatively skinny T2 diabetics ) who don't lose weight but do go into remission. I think there as once such person in this forum - though I haven't seen him post for a few months. Personally I believe that it is all about the crabs- that low carb controls BG independent of weight loss. Why? - Because as soon as I got my BG meter, I could see that low carb reduced my BG in finger-prick tests hence it would reduce the average or the HbA1C. But that was instantaneous - the very first Low Carb meal was all it took , so no weight loss was needed to trigger it! [/QUOTE]
