Message: <blockquote data-quote="Nicole T" data-source="post: 2291518" data-attributes="member: 527609">You still seem to think I'm in denial about having Type 2. I've twice had readings of over 11 before going low carb, which is a positive diagnosis of itself. I fully accept that I have the condition, and that I am now committed to a lifetime of watching what I eat. Clearly the A1c result matters, and the lower it is, the better. Given that cutting out chocolate immediately stopped the dehydration and excess urination symptoms, I think it's reasonable to conclude that this action lowered my peak levels, and would therefore lower my average levels over time. If I'd cut out the chocolate 3 months before my tests, I believe I'd have got a better result. Perhaps considerably so. That's all I'm trying to say here.We seem to be arriving at the same conclusion but from different directions: I'm going to need to experiment with food and drink to find out what I can get away with, while still maintaining pre-diabetic, or preferably non-diabetic readings.</blockquote>
