I wanted to share some positive results in hope that it will provide a little encouragement to folks new to this WOE.
Back in February, my A1c was 10.7 My doctor put me on Lantus insulin, with dosage increasing weekly for 2 months. That scared me. They also added more Metformin to my daily meds.
When I got home from the doctor, I joined this group. I started following this way of eating. I got rid of the carbs throughout the house. EVERYTHING that was off plan. I put it all on the table. Frozen stuff, stuff from the pantry and fridge. Gave it away. Returned it to the store (in some instances). Threw out stuff that was old.

Fast forward to this week.... and my A1c was 5.4. I can't say how happy
I am. I feel vindicated. This WOE is totally worth it. Eating to my
meter is just how things work now.
