[QUOTE="peter-c, post: 1725355, member: 203475"] Hi, Im new to the forum. I was diagnosed with diabetes 2 years ago, but managed to get the Hba1c level down to pre-diabetic levels. Then it went up again last year. I was getting fasting glucose levels of 8.7 and 9.0. A friend told me about the Fast Diet (Michael Mosley) which involves eating 600 calories two days a week and then what you like the rest of time. I am/ was a skinny on the outside type, with fat round the tummy and deposits of fat... In October I weighed 13 stone with fasting glucose of 9.0. By January I'd lost a stone and weighed 11 st 10 lb. My fasting BG had come down to 6.5, even 6.2. I then stated getting a bit over confident that I'd licked the diabetes. I started eating more carbs, had a glass or two of wine... The fasting BGs went up to 8.6, I put on 4-5 lbs. So now I'm back on the Fast Diet. BG going down and I've lost the 4 lbs again... [/QUOTE]
