[QUOTE="Martin D, post: 2099988, member: 511242"] Hi all, In January I was informed I had pre-diabetes and needed to take action. At the time, I was very slim and extremely active. However, I followed the advice given by the practise nurse to dramatically cut out sugars and to increase fibre in my diet. After following the guidance, and getting retested in July, my HbA1c level had RISEN to 6.4% and hey presto, I’d lost 5kg in weight, including muscle - the very last thing I needed to do. I’m not very patiently waiting for a follow up appointment and have been unsuccessfully trying to find a nutritionist who doesn’t want me to lose even more weight. I’m 5’10” and weigh 64kg. I cycle, climb mountains, practise yoga and go to the gym. I have to say my energy levels are lower than before. If there is anyone out there who has had a similar experience and/or advice, I’d be delighted to receive feedback/positive observations. Thank you. [/QUOTE]
