[QUOTE="LittleGreyCat, post: 2298947, member: 6467"] For comparison I'm 69 (almost 70) and my BMI has drifted up to 23.1 at the moment. My best and target BMI is 21.7. 6 foot and 12 stone 3 = BMI 23.1 6 foot and 11 stone 7 = BMI 21.7. My best BG results come when I am strictly ketogenic (as shown by ketone testing of blood and urine) by eating very few carbohydrates and mainly protein and fat. Exercise also helps, but is variable (as are most other things). I take Metformin, which also helps. I have no idea about my body fat ratio; however I must get round to using the body fat scales I bought from Lidl. I am fit and reasonably slim, so not the "typical" T2 as portrayed by the media..
