Hi everyone. I am a recently diagnosed type 2 diabetic. 100 lbs overweight. I am a veteran of the Adkins diet and am using a ketogenic diet to get things under control. I am using "Keto Clarity" by Jimmy Moore and "The Diabetes Soloution" by Dr. Richard Bernstein as my guides.
After only a couple of months I have already brought my A1C down to 5.6 and my trigligerides, cholesterol and hdl/ldl ratios to very good levels. After using insulin for 10 months, my Dr. told me to discontinue it. Blood glucose levels haven't gone up. Still on metformin. I have only lost about 5 pounds, though. This app looks great.

The non-scale victory of discontinuing insulin trumps that 5 pound loss. The weight will start to come off soon. Woo hoo!0
