You could always go keto? My cousin has completely reversed his type 2 diabetes on keto. He’s off all meds and blood sugar etc totally normal
I have a lot of diabetes in my family and a few years ago was on the edges myself
I started intermittent fasting and it’s been really good especially with weight loss and my sugar levels are now normal. I also have more energy. I do it long term to sustain 5/2 have breaks sometimes or just do once a week
Be careful with Keto it’s ok short term but has many critics
I’ve been keto for maybe 6 years? I also do IF. Done properly, it’s very sustainable (and the food is delicious) I really feel the different when I travel and go off keto - sluggish, tired, indigestion etc. I’ve read all the negatives when they come up but it’s usual written by someone who has a vested interest in knocking keto on the head (like Michelle Bridges) and /or they don’t get their facts right. Like critics who say that it’s too much protein - you actually can’t eat too much protein on keto or it converts to glucose and has the save effect as carbs. I monitor my macros carefully so I get the right balance of protein, fat & carbs (you actually do still eat carbs - just the right ones, like heaps of veggies and some berries)
I think the important thing is to research these diets and as you say do them properly. Fasting works for me as it’s the least demanding. My heritage is mediterranean so l love my cultural foods and my big loud family. Food is an important part of our interactions so I try to eat healthy within that framework - diets that limit categories of foods are not easy for me to manage
My husband uses my fitness Pal app he calorie counts and it tells you your sails consumption of carbs, protein and sugars .
He's lost two stone his liver function tests have all come down .
So over past 24 months I have lost 20kilo
Recently diagnosed type 2 diabetes..
