[QUOTE="Debmcgee, post: 2453695, member: 107709"] See this is the thing. Like most I started off GI then LCHF but that wasn’t enough so I went on keto. It worked within a few months to bring me down to pre diabetic levels. I stayed on strict keto and for a year I was the healthiest I’ve ever been - I was fasting too and did a lot of extended fasts with my longest being ten days. Then I met my boyfriend and things started to slide…then other stuff in my life happened and it all got too much so I went back to old ways. I stopped testing and I didn’t get any appointments for diabetes reviews so I put my head in the clouds. Luckily the covid struck and I had a BG test which was 26!!! I used to freak if I got a 6. HUGE wake up call and I’m glad as I have a second chance. I just hope it doesn’t take too long. Keto is definitely a way of life and I am at my best when on it. I have a renewed focus and this time I won’t let life overwhelm me so much where I self sabotage again. [/QUOTE]
