[QUOTE="TriciaWs, post: 2074554, member: 475901"] Your GP should do more reading. I already knew about low carb, having tried it before but then slipped back into eating my favourite junk food, so I declined metformin and went straight for a low carb lifestyle. I started on 100g a day, then down to 85g until all my blood tests were in the normal range. As a newly diagnosed T2 the initial drop was very quick but it took a few weeks to get all the blood tests into the normal range. That was a year ago, and I am 'in remission'. My triglycerides are down, my cholesterol is fine - eating more fat has not adversely affected them, quite the contrary. And while unable to exercise due to other conditions I've lost 5 st. [/QUOTE]
