[QUOTE="Debandez, post: 2074563, member: 460354"] Hi Jim and welcome It's a shock when you get diagnosed. Especially tough for you having suffered a heart attack at the same time. Unexpected too as you have been losing weight and eating what you thought was healthy to avoid the diagnosis. When you were pre diabetic I presume the advice your Dr gave you was similar to most of us. Sadly it doesnt work. It is indeed possible to bring your blood sugars to a normal level. I've attached an a4 sheet of results from must a few members. This info was collated in just a few days last year for a meeting we held. There are so many more people who have done the same. Not just on this site but many others. not just in the UK but all over the world. When I was diagnosed in December 17 the diabetic nurse wanted to put me straight on metformin. I wanted to see if I could do it with diet first. I went home and Googled 'reversing diabetes ' and a low carb way of eating seemed to be the solution so I decided that day to give it a go. It worked. My diabetic nurse told me just last month I'm now in remission. No meds. Have a look at this link to what's good and bad food wise: [URL]https://www.dietdoctor.com/low-carb/foods[/URL] You will find so much useful info on this site too. Just have a good read and ask as many questions as you like. People are very helpful and incredibly knowledgeable. Have a look at the success stories thread: [URL]https://www.diabetes.co.uk/forum/category/success-stories-and-testimonials.43/[/URL] [/QUOTE]
