[QUOTE="Onlinecaroline, post: 2361400, member: 528631"] I could have written your post a month ago but with a higher hbac1 test. I’m 33 and was diagnosed after a blood pressure check. I had lost about a stone and a bit through lockdown and put it down to hill walking but really I’m not sure. I asked to try diet and exercise rather than go in meds due to a family history of very badly managed diabetes. I’ve cut my carbs to under 20g a day and although it’s not been easy, it is getting much easier as the days go. I use a carb manager app, I don’t worry about calories for now and I’ve stopped eating breakfast to cut down my eating window. Hopefully with a little carb reduction your levels will come down.
