Hi - I'm new & not sure how all this forum thing works, so hope I'm doing this the right way. I tried messaging but that's asking for a signature tag which I don't understand either. I must be totally dim or not nearly techie enough & I thought that this shouldn't be too hard to do.
I started the 5:2 diet here in Oz in March this year after seeing Michael Mosely on Horizon. I'm a type 2 diabetic (non insulin dependent) & 5'10" tall & had gotten to 101.5kgs. My eyesight was being affected & glucose levels were over 9 in my Hb1AC test which is very bad. My doctor told me if I wanted to see 60 I had to do something. I am 53. I have found this diet or rather way of life fantastic. I now weight 66.5 kgs (my goal is 65kg) & I have reversed the diabetes with my latest Hb1AC test being 4.2. Normal is 4-6. My doctor is thrilled too & has told me to stop loosing weight!!!! Something that I have never had to do before. I feel fantastic & have so much energy. The only problem is I am experiencing hair thinning & wonder if anyone else is or has?
