Bhai suramo @anup Hidden are most leading members and guided and inspired many members to come back from point of no return.Hope they will help and guide you.
Plz don't worry and work out for reversal...I am sure with determination and proper guidance reversal is very much possible.

Anup,
"Cutting down calorie has failed everyone in the long term. "
We always differ on this point. Yes. Only cutting down calorie doesn't work. One needs to cut total calorie consumption by at least 30% and carb - complex - intake to upto 100 g a day to get your body fat burnt imho. Yes. Reducing carbs and increasing fats would increase bmr as some people say but i'd still advise to cut calorie intake too.

Howsoever intense exercise one does but until carb intake is reduced no effect on body weight will be seen. Do both. Lchf and exercise.
Also don't fear fats. Take liberal amount of good fats co vco evoo and ghee. I put not less than 20ml preferably 30ml evoo as dressing on my veg or egg omelette. Pure homemade ghee made by fermentation is very good. You can cook with it or use a liberal quantity as dressing.
You can take bulletproof coffee or use tea with vco and cow ghee instead.
@anup
That's fine but i have lost my weight that controlled my bs by low carb low calorie diet. Also we recommend IF. That's a kind of calorie deprivation. Also when on lchf diet we feel less hungry because of fats. I also feel full despite on hypocalorie diet. I don't have severe hunger ever since i started taking lchf. I take just one meal which is usually a veg with lots of evoo on top in the morning at around 10 and frankly i don't feel hungry till late evening. That too just hungry.
So may be we both are right.
anup,
CRaP is a different story. Even Jason Fung recommends fasting.
1) Eating repeatedly I don't support. All the time pushing insulin up and down puts stress on pancreas and causes hunger pains.
2) I recommend low calorie on lchf diet. Take bland diet like coconut bpc or popcorn if hungry.
3) Eating to satisfy doesn't mean taking full calorie diet. Certain food like coconut and oils make you full but provide less calorie.
Okay. Fine. I'd like cure who lost 8" of waist and Hidden who maintains excellent sugar control and a1c to 5 to respond how they reduced their weight. There are many others too. Well experienced people here.
4) How does one burn abd fat if it takes sufficient calorie? Low calorie does reduce bmr but to what extent? Also fat storage is nature's device to provide energy when starving. Abd fats burn only on prolonged starvation. Intense exercise is considered similar to starvation. So how about lchf with low calorie intake by 30%? It will work two pronged. 1) Calorie deprivation and 2) high fats will keep insulin low so lipolysis.

Anup,
ššššš.
Why should we care for what goes down? Care for what we get. But tell me how and why should our abd fat burn if we are not starving?
Anup,
I'm not talking about weight gain. I'm saying if you take as much calorie as you require your abd fat won't burn. We have to get rid of this abd fat to reverse our D.
pallaviD, your condition can be quickly, completely and safely reversed. Do not stress.
Hi Pallavi, Have a low carb diet, no rice, wheat instead have jowar, bajra and channa roti and you can have dalia made out of these, not more than total of 50 to 60 grams in whole day. You can have all dals with skin, vegetables,do at least 30 minutes of walking daily. eat non sweet fruits like green apple, jamun, gauva even you can have watermelons etc. Weight need to be reduce to ideal weight please see height weight and age chart and slowly try to reduce. follow these tips and I am sure you will loose weight and your blood sugar will reduce in a months time. The main culprit is the carb. This I am saying from my personal experience I have been diabetes over 15 years and 65 years of age, but physically active golfing 3 days other days walking and cycling, but of late my blood sugar was high, adopting this diet my BS is 100 to 120 fasting and PP 130 to 140 compared to fasting 160 and PP 250 earlier, no change in my medication. I will suggest go to an endocrine doctor for advice, moreover you have gone through hysterectomy and thus no hormone generation take this also into consideration. Be stress free and lead a happy life, nothing to worry. Life is too short and worrying will make it miserable.
Pl go to a diabetic clinic and bring sugar under control. They will advise you evening thing. Your sugar levels are very high and it can lead to several complications. Do not wait.
