Hi all,
Hoping you might be able to help. I was diagnosed about 3 years ago with type 2. my HBA1C was 17.5 and i was about 145kg. move forward 3 years, i am now as of this morning 91.7kg ( i have been down to 88kg). i am currently on 2 x Janumet 50/100
For the past 3 years my fasting reading has always been between 9.1 - 11.5 and my reading 2 hours after dinner is 6.3 - 7.8.
I have seen several dieticians, endo's, GP's, etc and not one of them can help. Dieticians seem to give me information that google gives me for free. I am seeing my 6th Endo in September however I was hoping you fine folk could give some tips.
I have tried many things,
Eating no carbs at dinner, eating most of my carbs at dinner, excercise before bed, no excercise before bed, eat a snack before bed, not eat before bed. Change my dosage of meds to be the most before bed, Change to XR medication, changed back.
occasionally i will get a reading that is like 7.8 so i study my food log to see what was different. But nothing.
My last endo said it is because i am losing weight and the bulk of my weight is around my stomach and thats where we store sugar in fats.. Sounds a bit suss to me.
Any suggestions would be fantastic.
