[QUOTE="Tirianne, post: 949583, member: 196322"] I was diagnosed on June 8th Type 2 and the next day I changed my diet to very low carb - and didn't increase fat too much because I need to lose 4 stone in weight. I was tired at first, but drinking more water throughout the day really helped. Then I started to build up my exercise, walking briskly for 5 mins, then a coup;e of days later to 10 mins and now I can go for 45 mins and not feel exhausted. Ironically, I have more energy after exercise these days and the BS levels are lower too. I've also lost 24 pounds to date.... and being in the lowest 'stone bracket' I can remember for ages. I think it does take time to adapt - but I'm not sure what being "fully ketone adapted" means :confused: [/QUOTE]
