[QUOTE="MrsA2, post: 2478057, member: 521715"] It may be that you are what I'd know as a TOFI, thin on the outside, fat on the inside, where fat collects around the liver and causes (or is caused by) insulin resistance. So it's not a matter of weight as such. You could try: Cutting carbs even further and going keto or even carnivore for a while to see if that has an effect on bg Introducing longer fasting periods to give your body time to deal with the bg, perhaps having a day a week without food, or one meal a day. Whatever suits you and your bg. You may find that this results in a side effect of a little lower weight, but that's not the aim, lower bg is, as it sounds like you really don't want to go the more, and more, medication route. Worth a try perhaps? [/QUOTE]
