[QUOTE="shelley262, post: 2442811, member: 455169"] When first diagnosed in 2015 with hbaca1 of 97 I followed the medical advice took the Metformin and went low fat with high carb - but of course whole grains and lots of fruit and veg! I did lose weight over the following two years - looking back partly because I used to have loads of tummy problems with a metformin sensitivity. Despite doing everything right though after initially lowering my sugars and weight a bit I started to see my sugars and weight rising despite still taking my metformin plus being permanently hungry and eating low fat and the hunger made it harder to resist those sugary temptations! I care for a adult son who has disabilities and I was finding it harder and harder to do everything I needed to do - in desperation I searched for another way to improve my health and came across the low carb program and the rest is history four plus years on into Keto my motivation like [USER=400972]@Rachox[/USER] is just how much better I feel I hadn’t realised just how poor my health and energy was until I got it back.so to summarise fear of not being around made me start and then when it worked my motivation became and continues to be staying as healthy as I can to be there for my family and to enjoy life.
