bloke at work has just done it.
Chicken salad instead of crew meals, omelettes and no bread, rice, pasta or root vegetables especially potatoes in any form. Lump of meat and veggies/salad for family meals.
Got his morning glucose level down from 7.5 to 5.3 and lost weight 5 kg to boot in 16 days.
His son is looking healthier as well for the family change in diet.
Got caught on his medical and was given 4 weeks to sort it by diet or go onto the pills with 2 months off to stabilise things. Medics say in three months time he will get a OGTT after a HbA1c test and if that's ok it will have never happened and won't go on his record.
