[QUOTE="TwoRivers, post: 1749822, member: 414336"] Nine months into my Low Carb diet, I have just had another meeting with my GP. Weight down 26 kilos from a year ago and about four kilos down since our last meeting three months back. The weight loss gets slower but it continues. After three or four months off insulin and metformin, my blood sugar HbA1c = 35 which my doctor says is 'almost too low.' (Do people here agree?) He asked how I had done it and when I mentioned low carb, he said they were beginning to advise patients to try low carb. Hurray. He adds that I am now no longer a diabetes patient. (I point out that this depends on my sticking to my diet.) Personally I recommend LCHF to everyone I see if they are a Type 2 diabetic -- provided that they can keep to the discipline of staying off potatoes, rice, desserts and booze and measuring their food intake. I was on diabetes medications for about 17 years and insulin for seven years, so it is a very welcome change. [/QUOTE]
