Message: <blockquote data-quote="Patch13" data-source="post: 630668" data-attributes="member: 58178">I've had success on LCHF. My HbA1c prior to it was about 7.8 (sorry I work in old money!) but I endured erratic blood sugar levels resulting in many highs and lows. Hence, I was miserable, grumpy and tired. I've now been LCHF for about 1 yr 8 months (I started on medium fat and have gradually added in more and reduced the amount of protein I was eating). Swinging blood sugar levels don't happen now and my HbA1c is now 5.2.  Occasionally I will get a sugar level of 8, but this is very rare and usually indicates I'm getting sick.  I'm also less tired and grumpy. My weight hasn't really changed. I don't have a lot to lose but wouldn't object to a few squidgy bits disappearing! However, I'm not overly bothered as my good blood sugar results convince me that I should continue eating this way to ensure I'm in good health as I get older.
