you are doing well then
I hope the extra metformin helps, I know your LCHF and after tea is ok by what you have posted before. the liver dump is always the last to get fixed.
you are doing well thenHi @jack412...while I was away from forum my readings got so much better as id lost 3 stone and I stopped needing insulin. Although I've kept the weight off .my eating habits slowly got worse until my DN wanted me to go back on insulin...I'm trying lchf first. Yes I've got the go ahead to raise my metformin and with the help of you all on here I may just swing it. I tried low carb about 3 years ago. But not the lchf I'm doing now...got my daytime readings down a treat. My fastings I'm struggling with
Welcome back Ally! We were all wondering where you were!10.1
10.1
that 10.1 is my best reading first thing in the morning so that is slowly coming down
It certainly is the feeling better that spurs us on! 14 weeks in and I love my lchf regime and it doesn't bother me on but when I do the shopping and get bits for my two teenage daughters that are no longer to my requirements!! Even at work we are currently being given tins and boxes of chocolates as an end of season thank you from the regular guests and van owners.......and I just smile and pass on my share to colleagues in the office, knowing what I'm doing is working!!Well done All, and I'm so please you're feeling better. It's that feeling better that really persuades us that it's worth sticking with. Undoubtedly, like the rest of us, you'll have "I hate all of this" days that only lusting after something on the banned list will salve, but every day, with every new personal best, my confidence and belief in you gets better.
What was your Mum's reaction to all that's been going on? Is she being supportive? I know it can be difficult for non-sufferers to understand what we need to do.
Go ally!! You are doing so well!!mum is getting used to the idea of me being diabetic
