[QUOTE="Resurgam, post: 1864898, member: 355878"] I stopped taking Metformin as it made me so ill - but I cannot eat high carb foods, but you obviously can - you have even lost weight and lowered your Hba1c. Why not work out how many carbs you are eating (potatoes are about 15 percent carbs I think) and perhaps substituting some other foods - though it is perfectly possible to survive on what you are eating the potato is a surprisingly nutritious foodstuff. I like a stirfry of sweet pepper courgette and aubergine which is low carb and should not cause high BG levels - I also eat mushrooms, beetroot, cauliflower and broccoli, celeriac onion and leeks - there are lots of low carb vegetables, lower than potatoes.
