[QUOTE="Tokamachi, post: 1584232, member: 404885"] Sir, you always have an option!!! Just how bad do you wanted!!! I was diagnosed type 2 when I was 65, I thought I was pretty good shape. I ran, weight training, hiked near mountains, soccer, and involved many sports event. I was 115 lbs, 5’2” and BMI was 18. When I got sick, I lost 30lbs and my doctor ran A1C it was 14.8, my glucose was 386 no symptoms of diabetes. At this point I was 37kg, 157cm, and BMI was 16. (May, 17) Since May this year, I started low carb and high fat diet, 40-50g of carb, 40g of proteins, 2500-3000 cal to gain back my weight. It doesn’t fix your A1C or glucose so quickly, I’m on the diet for 3 month my glucose average is down to 150mg/dL and A1C is 8.2, I take Glipizine 10mg once day. I’m hoping to get rid of Glipizide in one year. I’m now 40kg and started feeling better. Be patient and stay on the proper diet and work out. You need to make sure track of all foods and drinks you put in your mouth. Good luck Sir, we can get rid of meds in future! My measurements are in US not UK, little confusing! [/QUOTE]
