That's great news, Lisa! Who could have believed it ---- fat and protein and beautiful test results like yours! Nothing could be more motivating.

I have good news, too. I saw a new doctor yesterday, and after reviewing my blood tests, he seems to feel that I don't have full-blown diabetes, yet. He thinks I'm "just" insulin resistant at this stage. He said the facts that my blood sugar has gotten into the normal range so quickly and with no medication, an HbA1c of 7 a month after diagnosis, normal triglicerides and normal thyroid levels support his opinion that I have luckily caught this early. AND, he has no problem at all with my low-carb diet. He told me to keep doing what I'm doing, and retest fasting glucose and HbA1c in mid-December. I guess I found my new doctor! Even if I am diabetic, his encouragement and support (along with everyone's here) have made a tremendous difference. The whammy that the other doctors and the nutritionist have put on my head is gone.
