[QUOTE="Krystyna23040, post: 1887945, member: 374421"] I do agree that my post was ambiguous. I also agree that these are very interesting times and there's never been a better time to be diagnosed than now. It's interesting that we are all so different and that people are finding out what really works for them. I have a friend who is T2 and has come off insulin by going vegan. She hasn't even gone low carb vegan but has gone very high carb vegan and very restricted calories. Basically she eats everything I don't but not very much of it and her blood sugars are in the 4s for a lot of the day. It's very puzzling but it definitely works for her. She also runs for miles. I knew I had to go down the low carb route because it was a way of eating that I like and could stick to - and there was no way l was going to take up running. It is great that people are going into remission or reversing diabetes now. My medical records state that I am in remission. I actually don't class myself as in remission. I prefer to think of myself as diet controlled because that, to me, is very clearly what I am. Maybe in the future - when I can eat 50g of carbs and not spike my BS and stay high for hours afterwards I will call myself in remission. I have a horrible feeling that this may be years away for me - if ever. I shouldn't complain though as I feel loads better now than when I was injecting and I do really love the huge range of food I can eat. [/QUOTE]
