[QUOTE="jayney27, post: 1757049, member: 455431"] Hello and welcome, you are not alone in your diagnosis as everyone here either has it, or lives with someone that has it. I agree with what’s been said already, initially I followed the NHS advice of a lower calorie balanced diet, I lost a stone over a 6 week period. I then decided to try the low carb lifestyle as followed by many people here, wow, I’m so glad I switched. I’ve lost 4 stone in total, at my last check up my HbA1c came back at the pre diabetic level, by the way this was also my first check up since diagnosis so you can see positive results in a fairly quick time frame. This said I appreciate that we are all different and our bodies respond to diet, medication or exercise in different ways, but please give low carb a try, I do miss some high carb foods but I love the eggs, bacon, cream, cheese I now consume without guilt. Hopefully you will get the results you hope for and everyone here will be routing for you and willing to offer our support. Good luck [/QUOTE]
