[QUOTE="sixfoot, post: 21711, member: 7385"] [b]Re: Success stories[/b] Sorry Fergus no previous readings as i was never told what they were or that they were even important, simply that this is up or down and take this pill. That is one thing that has now changed. Diagnosed in 2000, T2 and until April this year faithfull disciple of the standard mantra. The GP wanted to put me on insulin. I drive for a living and realised it would have an impact so something had to change. So i got onto the Internet and started looking, Found out about Byetta and asked the questions. Well i was getting very close to 20st and knew it. Weight loss was part of the Package so the GP sent me to Consultant who agreed. So in April this year i started Byetta and the numbers did start to fall as did the weight. So i looked around some more and found this site and all the advice on reducing carbs etc. I have no regrets or looked back. 7th August this year had my Annual review with a difference, i was asking the questions. My GP looked a little surprised when i asked what all the readings were. I simply said that i think i should know. My weight has gone from 19st 12 to 18st 3 since April but static at present Self test BS 5-6 Review results cholestrol 3.2 Triglycerides 1.5 Ldl 1.5 Hdl 1.0 HbA1c 6.1 in my humble opinion certainly for T2`s, carb restriction is a no brainer. i cant say ive been hungry or tired since i started and still waiting for the scurvy and mange to show up. Has anyone got some they could lend me ???????? Thank you all Dave P [/QUOTE]
