I am a Type 2 Diabetic.

I was diagnosed in December 2022.

Since being diagnosed I have made a lot of life style changes

with the goal of being off my diabetes medication.

In November 2023 I achieved that goal.

In April 2025 my doctor recommended I stopped using a

Continuous Blood Glucose Monitor - CGM to monitor

my blood glucose levels.

I have a positive mindset that owns my diagnosis and

response to it.

This is my journey and my relationship with diabetes.

I follow a Low Carbohydrate, high fat, high protein diet which has been successful in reducing my need for Metformin medication, CGM blood glucose monitoring and supported my weight loss.

This is a video - and a podcast is available describing how I assemble my daily breakfast comprising whole foods, nutritious foods.

Other meal preparations will come in the future
