I am on Keto for my diabetes. I have lost 26 lbs doing low carb eating. I live in Alabama and post my weekly menu plans on YouTube. My hubby and I are retired. His 86 yo mom lives with us. Hi everyone!

    Welcome. I was diagnosed with diabetes in August. I'm not on a "keto" diet but do eat mostly lean meats and veggies - keeping net carbs to 60 or so per day. Good luck!

    For your diabetes try cutting out meat for several weeks. I was pre diabetic and after 2 weeks on a plant based diet my blood sugar was normal

    The book Dr Bernstein's Diabetes Solution is a great source for diabetes who use low carbs to manage their blood glucose. He has a few good YouTube videos too (Richard Bernstein).

    Congrats on your success so far!
