[QUOTE="Melgar, post: 2669981, member: 520626"] I would be very interested too. I went on a low carb (35 gms a day) I lost 35lbs since last May. I am now at the low end of normal weight wise. The pic of me was a month ago in Palm Springs, California. I exercise everyday in a big push to get my blood sugars down. I’ve been exercising like crazy since last May. My last Ac1 results (Just a week before Christmas) was very disappointing. I was shocked as I was expecting it to be in the low 5’s. From pre weight loss in March to just before Christmas my Ac1’s dropped from 6.7% to 6.3% . Not that high I know but sheesh something is a miss. A friend of mine was on insulin, he lost 40 lbs in weight and is now in remission! He wasn’t even exercising. What’s going on I ask myself. I stopped reading and participating on this site because I got very stressed with everybody’s success on low carb and weight loss. Don’t get me wrong I am very happy for each and everyone and much deserved. My brother is LADA and on insulin. His blood sugars started to go up fast after a short fever after being diagnosed with T2 for a few years back before he was diagnosed with LADA. I am pushing for answers so heading back to my Dr next week. It’s a big push because I am getting slight pins and needles in my fingers and toes. I’m on the verge of giving up on the low carb as it’s made no difference at all. I try and put a positive spin on it as I do feel great but worried at the same time. [/QUOTE]
