Changed carb intake, focusing on macro utrients for my needs. Started 11/7, down 12 lbs, off 2 orals. Using 1/3 of previous mealtime units and half of previous basal. Docs sure won’t tell you that you need far less carbs per meal/snack than “recommended” by the American Diabetes Assoc.
There is no such thing as an essential carbohydrate.
ZERO is the magic number.
My doctor recommends low carb or keto to all his type two diabetics. I was one of his first patients to introduce him to how effective it is.
I’m also on the road to getting off all diabetes meds.
My Dr referred me to this guy from Canada. Funny little voice but I’m already wrecking my high glucose numbers.

Basically I eat a late breakfast and am done with dinner by 7. No snacking.
I have not completely removed sugars and carbs but have cut them down substantially.
Only about 10 days in and my fasting sugar ##’s down from the 170-180 range to 130-140. Already had one morning at 103.
Here’s a short YouTube from the same guy that kicked it off for me.
How are your numbers looking, now?
