[QUOTE="ianf0ster, post: 2119155, member: 506169"] I have been doing 1 or 2 days per week of TRF (but I have always called it IF) since my T2 DX was confirmed in may (2019). I didn't have meter back when the first Hba1c showed me in the diabetic range, but I did cut down drastically on carbs and increased my Fat intake, during which time I lost about 8lbs though I was barely overweight in the first place. Since then I got the feeling that LCHF alone (in my case a lot of fat - since I didn't restrict Calories at all), was not reducing my weight at quite the same rate - thus I introduced the occasional skipping of breakfast. Note that I hate most forms of exercise, so I have not increased that. It isn't that I can't do a so-called real fast since I have to do that for my regular colonoscopies, but I am rather grumpy at the best of times, and fasting for 36hrs to 48hrs just makes that worse. I don't want to inflict that on my wife unless absolutely necessary! [/QUOTE]
