I figured I would share this for any of y'all who know people with type 2 diabetes. I know I sent some of you Dr. Fung's books. All I can say is the proof is in the tasting of the pudding or in this case my excellent test results. And the funny thing is my Doc said keep up with the exercise (I told him I do not exercise) and the low fat diet - LMAO - I use full fat everything. Like heavy cream in my coffee. I will take him a copy of The Diabetes Code when I go back Nov 1st.
Shout out to Dr. Jason Fung!!! Discovered I was diabetic in February 2017 and had an A1c of 12.5!! Was prescribed and took 1,000 mg Metformin daily and dilly dallied till December 2018. My fasting glucose was creeping up and on 12/12/2018 it was 264 then the next day was 270!! A moment of serendipity led me Dr. Fungs book The Diabetes Code and I bought a .pdf file, as well as The Obesity Code and The Complete Guide to Fasting, and read it within the next 24 hours and started my journey. In 12 days my glucose had dropped to 98 (I had NEVER had a double digit reading) and was so excited I forgot to take my metformin & I have not taken it since!! Beginning weight was 255 and I have lost 40 pounds of my 60+ planned, I WILL lose the next 20+!!, and I was honestly a little apprehensive to see a Dr yet I finally bit the bullet and had a complete physical and labs Thursday. ALL of my lab results were excellent! BP 118/76, LDL 86, HDL 65, triglycerides 74 and my A1c was 5.4!!!! My fasting glucose, however, was 109 and 'they' want it less than 100 so my Dr. listed on my records “We can now call this! pre-diabetes but not diabetes…” BOOM!! Next appointment is November 1st and my BMI will be well below 30 by then and I am positive my numbers will be even better!! THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU Dr. Jason Fung!! Type 2 diabetes is completely REVERSIBLE and not a death sentence!!
