[QUOTE="szia, post: 1254998, member: 329322"] I posted a message before but it disappeared so will try again. I have been diagnosed as type 2 on 19th August with a HBAC1 reading of 75. My cholesterol levels and blood pressure were also high and have been given 3 months to lower otherwise will have to take medications for them. I was put on 2 metformin tablets a day which were increased to three a day as I was still feeling tired all the time. I immediately began a low carb diet (approx. 100-150g a day) and 30min walking per day. 4 weeks on, I have lost 7 pounds and blood pressure has decreased to normal levels. However my morning blood glucose level are usually between 7 - 8 and never below the normal level of 6.7. Anyone know why this is and what I can do? [/QUOTE]
