Within a month, all of the symptoms that led me to the dr were gone. By the end of month three, I'd lost 20 pounds and felt wonderful. After a year on the 60g a day diet I gradually "fell off the wagon" and still did really well for several years. Just now I'm starting to "feel it" and I know that it's time to do the right thing again.
This doctor really did cure me of type 2 diabetes. Yes, in the beginning the diet sucked and got really boring. But the 60g a day wasn't that bad.
Thanks for the reinforcement. It’s good to hear that minimizing carbs can work to eliminate this. I’m doing Phase I of South Beach and it does restrict carbs considerably. I’m not interested in bread, pasta, potatoes, and rice anyway, so no great loss. In the future, I’d be able to get by on 60 grams of carbohydrates a day.
