hi everyone - this is my 1st posting to the board. come from a family of diabetics - limb losers - & early deaths - diagnosed over 16 years ago. I started the newcastle diet 6 days ago & am already seeing benefits. On Metformin @ 3 x 850 + 4 gliclicide + 1 sitigliptin. I was not in control of my diet so had very high blood sugar readings. reached a high 2 weeks ago of 28. started diet on tuesday 27th march with a fasting b/s of 19.5 - this mornings fasting reading was 9.4 - YAY getting weighed tomorrow morning to see weight-loss. hoping to come off the medication soon. enough is enough! looking forward to meeting you all.....
