[QUOTE="HSSS, post: 2191681, member: 480869"] Hello [USER=398098]@HICHAM_T2[/USER] can I confirm I understand your question. You were diagnosed as type 2 with an hb1ac of 13%. You used diet to lower this to 6.4% but lost muscle by doing so. You have had no recent tests and so do not know what your current levels are. You have returned to eating higher carb foods since the last test. You are now feeling tired again. so I think you want to regain weight and feel less tired. Is that right? I think you must get a new test to see just where you are now before you decide what to do about it. It may be that stopping the low carb diet and eating higher carb food has raised your hb1ac and hence the tiredness is a symptom of this. If this is the case you already know low carb will lower your blood levels without the need for insulin. Insulin - if you already have a lot but are resistant - will only in the long term make things worse. Did you add protein and fat last time you did low carb? This is typically how to avoid weight loss and even regain some whilst not effecting blood glucose levels. [/QUOTE]
