[QUOTE="seanj67, post: 1879739, member: 114574"] Great thread. Some years ago I followed the Dukan plan - and lost a lot of weight in 3 months. My bloods were "normal" and my cholesterol too. My DN was confused and wanted to repeat the tests as 3 months earlier they had been bad and she couldn't understand the sudden drop. The Dukan was ok, but like a few of these things it took thought and (to me) was tedious - but it worked so carry on 'eh? Well no, I didn't, I went back to eating the stuff I enjoyed and gradually my BG's went back up - although not as high. I then tried the 5:2, Blood Sugar Diet and LC - all of which worked to a degree but didn't hold my attention for long enough. I have just joined Slimming World for 3 months to give myself some structure. As people probably know, some of the the "free" foods on SW are pasta, rice & potatoes - I couldn't possibly eat those in unlimited amounts, but I can adapt it and enjoy a little - portion control is my enemy...has been for 30 years. I've also spoken to other group members that are T2 and do eat quite a bit of the pasta & rice, and have seen great results in BG - one who said she was now med free. I do believe weight loss is key. After my 3 months I will re evaluate things and probably try and fly solo as by then hopefully I will have re educated myself and learned to eat less etc. and keep the carbs down. So primarily I'm focusing on weight loss, which in turn should pay off re the BG's Watch this space, and I will let you know if it worked! S [/QUOTE]
