[QUOTE="Donnadoobie, post: 1082755, member: 199062"] [USER=88961]@AndBreathe[/USER] thank you for that. In June 2010 I was 13st 10lbs and had a fasting blood test at the doctor which came back at 6.8, I started to do exercise, lost some weight and over the next 3 years they were 6.7, 6.7, 6.9. In March last year I had my first Hba1c which came back at 49 and was told to go back for another test 3 weeks later, that came back at 46 so was not diagnosed with type 2 and was told I was still prediabetic. In October It was 43 and generally had fasting levels in high 5's and low to mid 6's. Today has been a blow, as by following this diet for almost 8 weeks it has thrown a curveball, with a 6.4 FBS after several weeks of 5's. Doesn't seem to want to move either as 3 hours after just 2 scrambled eggs for breakfast is still 6.4! Going to see how long it takes to get back down to the 5's today. I do have to admit to feeling a little out of sorts today, so maybe that's why. My head feels a little fuzzy and I am not feeling 100%, maybe I am fighting a virus. Although I am pleased with the weight loss, I now weigh 9st 6lbs and am a size 10, I do want to stabilise my weight, don't really want to lose any more but have been disappointed that the weight loss and low carb diet has made very little change to my blood sugars, was really hoping they would drop to high 4's low 5's as I seem to have been stuck in the same prediabetic levels for almost 6 years and whatever I do they don't move. Very frustrating [/QUOTE]
