[QUOTE="Mrs T 123, post: 2284024, member: 526020"] Hi [USER=527206]@Wookie1974[/USER] when I was diagnosed T2 around 3 years ago with a HbA1c of 86, my GP wanted to put me on medication - when I met with the DN she agreed to give me 3 months to let me try and get my HbA1c down to around 50 through diet and exercise only (no medication) - which I did it was 46 - I achieved this by cutting out all obvious carbs. white bread, rice, pasta, potatoes, cakes etc. and I probably reduced my calorie intake a lot also which was not something I was aware of at the time and I also lost over a stone in weight during that period. You will see from my signature that I have been in remission for over 2 years now, like a lot of other on here doing low carb etc. You appear to be going in the right direction with what you are doing at the moment.
