Type 1 diabetic for the last 40 years. A1Cs run in the 4.5 - 4.7 range. I lift five days a week and eat high fat/protein and low carb. I weigh 184 and am 6’1.
Since I posted this, I’ve lost 5 pounds. I’ve eaten high protein/fat and very low carb diet. I’m eating until I’m full. I haven’t had between-meal or late night cravings. I’ve worked out every day (and will continue lifting 3 days a week and walking/running for 30 minutes at least 3 times a week. I’m a little surprised at the weight drop already. Obviously I have to stick with it, and that’s the plan.

Hell yes!

Is your sleep improving?

And yes, it's frigging wild how fast you lose weight in the first two weeks. It's mostly water weight, but in no time flat you're going to see more definition all over your body.

Definitely bump this thread when you get your next blood test.

Best of luck to you. Type 2 is much more forgiving than Type 1, but some sacrifice is required to whip it. Stick with the plan. Looks like it’s already working.
