[QUOTE="Rachox, post: 1854358, member: 400972"] Well my story in a nut shell is this. Hypertension and very overweight for several years prior to my type 2 diagnosis. I was on two BP meds and even those didn’t really keep it down to acceptable levels. Move forward to May ‘17 and was diagnosed with type 2 and very luckily stumbled on this site that night. I saw straight away that low carb was the route I wanted to take. Now after 15 months of low carbing my weight is down, my BP is down (only on one tablet now), HbA1c is down, the only thing that’s up is my cholesterol! But ratios are good so I’m not worried even though my GP is when he sees my total! You are lucky Primrosefairydust that at least your nurse advocates low carb even if she doesn’t follow it up with any further advice, but you’ve found this site so I’m sure you’re doing great. Well done on your weight loss and good luck with your next appt. [/QUOTE]
