YOU GUYS!!!

In three months, I have brought my A1C from 9.9 to 6.0. Yes, that's with the help of meds, but GODDAMN y'all. I am so pleased with myself.

Hi, internet friends. For Reasons, I am seeking information, lived experiences, general advice (not medical, I'm well-supplied for that), resources and community on living with #T2Diabetes.

Can you personally suggest trustworthy websites, forums, videos, channels on the topic? My first instinct was to look for things on YouTube, before realising I literally cannot trust anything that search or the algorithm would dish up for me there.

Please boost for myself and for others.

I've lost 5lb since I started my diet a few weeks ago. Just through eating better and less. If I had the time to exercise I'd be unbeatable.

Still, I'm happy with that and I'm hoping in three weeks time I'll have lost a few more lbs.

Day to day: the weirdness of CGMs

Lately I've been experimenting with a CGM (Lifestyle Libre, 2 as it's pretty much all I can find here). One of the things I noticed was that the readings were delayed compared with the finger prick tests. Looking at curves and aligning on maximums, it seems to be about 10 minutes. That is usually explained by the fact that the CGM reads int

Basics: The importance of a routine

Treating T2 diabetes isn't easy. It requires information, research, planning, monitoring, adjusting, and sacrifice. There is no one size fits all. You have to take into account your objectives, your body, the advancement of the disease, your personality, etc. Making a plan that works for you is a big job in itself.

Basics: phase 3

Now that my HbA1c has been stable for 8 months without any medication, I consider that I'm entering phase 3 of treatment.

Phase 1 was weight loss, glycaemia control, increasing insulin sensitivity for 6 months. During that time, my HbA1c went from 7.5+% to 5.0%, I lost 40kg, I fixed my fatty liver, high liver iron, high blood pressure, and various other issues.

Phase 2 was the re

Basic: blood glucose is not the issue

A lot of T2 diabetics are focused on their blood glucose levels. They monitor it and they want medication that will make it go down. But that's the wrong thing to focus on. Kinda.

Blood glucose is a side effect of what the problem really is. High blood glucose, i.e. diabetes, it generated by two causes:

1) High glucid intake.2

Day to day: another day in my food

As it's summer and it's hot (we often hover in the upper 30sC), we eat mostly salads at the moment. But it doesn't have to be boring, there are a lot of combinations you can use.

First, breakfast and the traditional eggs.

During the morning I took my blood pressure and it was 117/81. Pretty decent given that I had high blo

Low carb living
Just got my annual diabetic test result back. I'd been a bit worried as my chocolate intake had crept up but it's fine. HbA1c is 36.
So as long as I had a tight control of other carbs in the day a couple of extra squares of chocs at night was fine.
I am still in remission - nearly 5 years now.

Basics: why subreddit mods are wrong

Once I was kicked out of the subreddit /r/diabetes_t2, the mods went through all my comments to add their own reply. To every one of them. That comment said:

It's not an experiment I would have wanted to run, but as it happened, i thought I might as well keep an eye on what was going on.

Yesterday, immediately after lunch I started to feel queasy. About 20 minutes later, I was vomiting my lunch. I was sick for about an hour until I felt well enough to go lie in bed for the rest of the afternoon, with a o

Opinion: subreddits are run by people who love their diabetes

I've been permanently banned from the /r/diabetes_t2 subreddit because one of my posts "violates this community's rules". I can't see which rules and they don't specify (how convenient).

My experience of Reddit diabetic communities is that they are run by and are full of people who desperate

First year of diabetes retrospective

I wrote this post to start a new Reddit community on reversing diabetes. I grew tired of the other communities where the credo is that diabetes is forever, that it can't be reversed, and that it can only get worse. This isn't supported by recent research, isn't my experience, and shouldn't be imposed on faith.

Progress: 1 year anniversary

This is the first year anniversary of my diabetes diagnosis. To celebrate, I had a quarterly blood test done this morning.

The results are in: fasting sugar 86mg/dl, HbA1c 5.4% (down from 5.44% the last time). So, everything is still good, post-diabetes is sticking as expected.

Below is a graph of all my data over the last year: daily average

Day to day: rice

The one thing that I'm still not entirely happy eating is rice. Pasta, wheat, and everything else doesn't spike me much anymore. But rice keeps my blood sugar high for a long time.

For example, the other night I ate a big bowl of rice and vegetables with breaded "chicken" (wheat since I'm vegetarian). So a nasty combination of rice and wheat in several forms. Before I
