Hi everyone out there practicing low-carb. I need your help. I have been practicing low-carb lifestyle for the last 3 1/2 to 4 years and love it and I’m doing very well for the most part. I had lost 50 pounds and have kept that off and because I cook my husband eats what I make so he was doing low-carb until recently and I think the holidays have allowed him to not eat the way he knows he should. His A1c last time he had his blood work done was six and recently had blood work done with a new doctor and it was 8.8 and she told him he HAD to go on metformin and would NEVER be able to come off of it! I know that low-carb lifestyle can change peoples diabetes and so I would love to hear suggestions or stories on how to handle this from anybody who has been through the same thing. Any articles out there that you could forward to me that would help me with my case against going on medication I would appreciate that help as well.
