T2diabetes remission

[Devines]

Hi

I was diagnosed 6 weeks ago with an HBA1c of 101, I am doing the fast 800 diet of 2 shakes and a 400 cal meal in the evening. What should I be aiming my blood glucose to be?

Currently my blood sugars are between 4.2 and 6.0 Mmols. I have also lost 9kgs (21 lbs).

. Also I have been prescribed Metformin slow release 500 mg morning and evening. And hopefully will come off that soon. I am due my next blood test mid November.

Thanks

I assume you are doing this diet under the supervision of your GP or some other qualified person. They would be the ones to ask. Good luck with it, anyway.

These crash diets don't really work and are not sustainable in the long term.

All you need to do is cut out refined sugars and eat real food and you will reverse your h1bac score.

I took mine from 98 to 30 while taking Metformin in 2021 and this was achieved in 3 months. I lost 6 stone in weight and this was combined with excercise. I have kept my weight off.

The first 6 months I didn't eat a lot of fruit, I do now but it doesn't have a big impact on my score but I do a lot of walking and cycling.
