[QUOTE="Smallbrit, post: 1705501, member: 456748"] I agree with above comments - using a meter as above is invaluable in knowing what your body can and can't cope with. On the metformin, I believe there's been people on this forum who have come off it when blood sugars have been well controlled, but I'm sure more knowledgeable people than me can answer that. It wasn't mentioned to me at all when my bloods skyrocketed to 89, but maybe that was because I had proven I knew how to keep them down in the 40s on a low carb diet - I just specifically chose not to do that last year and almost inhale biscuits instead. Have a look into what carbs are in what - some answers may be surprising! This is a useful starting guide. [URL]https://www.dietdoctor.com/low-carb/foods#foodlist[/URL] [/QUOTE]
