Visit to DN today for test results. I'm T2, diet controlled.
HbA1c in December was 6.7. Today 6.2.
Cholesterol was 5.2. Today 4.7 (HDL 1.2, LDL 2.9)
Triglycerides 1.3
And I've lost 9 pounds in the month since I last saw her
When she asked how I'd done it, told her I'd been following a low-carb diet. After last visit to DN, and being upset because nothing I used to do was working, found The Metabolism Miracle by Diane Kress in Waterstones. In book she said everything I'd just said to DN. So decided to be my own lab rat and test her plan. Fasting bg was 8.1, next day 7.4, then 6.7, then 6.2. Before this had struggled to get it under 7. Now bg stays under 7 unless I'm careless with carbs.
DN impressed and taken details of book. As I pointed out - it works for me So looks like I'll be sticking to low carb now.
Very happy bunny today
