If you control type 2 diabetes with diet do you lose weight on a low-carb diet (no medicine).

[QUOTE="JRTwalker, post: 1684102, member: 376091"] my experience has been that following focused low carb diet (less than 40g per day) resulted in my HbA1c moving from 100 to 33 and staying there for 12 months now but my weight loss stopped after 40Kg even though I could and would like to lose more. If I consume more than 1200 calories a day I will likely put on weight from what I've seen more recently which is disturbing since all medical sources are saying I don't eat enough. My exercise has remained consistent around 40+km per week or 45 minutes power walking each day. What this says is that whilst holding DB in remission is seemingly achievable, repairing metabolism is much harder and I seem to be trapped in a very low calorie lifestyle where I am regularly fatigued and tired.
