One year on

I would guess that you are enjoying vegs by the sound of it and berries in season and lush apples (I miss them with almond butter:() so I don't know that you can assume it is a no carb diet like Nocarbsforme eats....Well done sir! blessings/L

Yes that’s right. Low carbs - around 25-30 usually. From veg mostly
 
I was diagnosed T2D in February last year. My fasting blood sugar was over 12, my h a1c was 78. I was 80kg, had high blood pressure and I was on statins, the full metabolic syndrome. Quite by chance I heard of someone who had reversed his diabetes, so I researched and came across lchf and diet doctor and diabetes.co.uk. So I started on lchf. Within 3 months my Hba1c was down to 35, I had lost 10kg, had stopped taking blood pressure meds (I was on 2) and I stopped taking statins. My fasting blood sugar was 5-5.5. One year after the diagnosis, I weigh 61kg, and all my health markers are normal. My last h a1c (October) was 34 and my blood sugar this morning was 5.2. I have probably never been so well in my life.

I cycle 8.5 miles to work 2 to 3 time’s a week, and do resistance training. I have never eaten so well, and my treats consist of a glass of red wine a few times a week and a small amount of Montezuma’s fabulous 100% chocolate!

At first I felt very bad about the diagnosis, but every cloud has a silver lining as my health is now really good.

Well done @simsussex! Thanks for sharing I am inspired!
