[QUOTE="bikerman1955, post: 2314716, member: 124738"] Hi I've been type two since 1999 and initially controlled it through diet and exercise for at least five years but slowly the numbers crept up. It got to a point about 18 months ago they crept up to more than 75 and thought I needed to try and take more control but did know how, I was following all the guidelines from dietitians and nutritionists but still they weren't coming down. Eventually I went to the internet and started following a low carb regime which brought my level down to 61 and then went on to keto and last reading was 43 and I have lost over 4 stone. So yes diet alone can help you tremendously but I would cut out as many carbs as you can as so called wholemeal/wheat can have as many carbs as the other stuff main thing read your labels hope this helps and wishing you lots of luck [/QUOTE]
