[QUOTE="pavlovsdog, post: 1874001, member: 132394"] Just wanted to add another update. I am now off insulin altogether after having to reduce it to 1/3 of my usual dosage by the end of the first week. My bgs have all been under 7 which is great, and remain stable. I have eaten on occasions; I had the steamed veg which is allowed a couple of times, but also went out for a meal on Saturday which had been planned for months. I had steak which was the best I've ever tasted, yum! I have struggled with hunger and needing to have something solid in my tum so I had food yesterday. However, I'm not going to get annoyed with myself about it, it needed to be done and I'm back on the wagon today. I think I have lost weight as my clothes are baggier, but I haven't been able to see my nurse to get weighed as she is off after breaking her shoulder. She's not going to be happy about me not taking insulin but I must admit I feel a whole lot better without it - makes you wonder about medication really. Anyway, that's all for now and Ill post again with another update [/QUOTE]
