reverse type 2 diabetes? ha i straight up cackled at my endo, coffee shot out my nose and everything. paper gown crinkling, rain pounding the clinic windows like it owed money. shes all “remission” like its a netflix thing. anyway fast forward three yrs im 46 lbs lighter, metformin in the trash, and i can do birthday cake without the usual shame spiral. so… maybe not total bs?
why reverse type 2 diabetes felt like scam city
i was the king of tomorrow. glucose logs? looked like bitcoin crash. 280 after sheetz pizza, 42 when i overdid insulin and keto flu. doc droning lifestyle changes diabetes, me nodding while ordering wings on the sly. kid found my glucagon kit, thought it was playdoh. priorities got rearranged real fast.
blood sugar hacks that didnt suck (and the ones that did)
nobody says it but reverse type 2 diabetes aint cute. its bargaining with a pancreas toddler. what stuck:
- walking everywhere. 3am target laps cuz cant sleep.
- meat and greens first, rice later. spikes chilled.
- sleep. one 10hr night i woke at 94. witchcraft.
fails? cauli rice is wet cardboard. erythritol brownies = 40min porta potty hell at nephews game. never again.
american diabetes struggle, drive thru edition
suburbs are traps. every corner a siren song of fries. cried in wendys lot once cuz frosty machine down. needed that sugar fix bad. reverse type 2 diabetes in food desert? dark souls with mittens.
remission stories no filter
insta shows abs. reality:
- random 200s that break you
- mom confused by butter spoons
- mourning breadsticks
a1c: 8.7 to 7.4 to 6.8 to 6.2 to 5.6. each drop = stolen time.
lifestyle changes diabetes without the perfection bs
systems not goals:
- tabs in every bag
- alarm: EAT PROTEIN DUMMY
- one friend who texts “walk?”
might not last tho
truth bomb: reverse type 2 diabetes aint cure. pancreas still moody. one bad week and boom. but 5.6 today. today i win. cauli rice + hot sauce = dignity.
if youre hiding in car with chips rn—same. do one thing. walk. water. comment your mess. we got this.
not doc advice. mine still roasts my carb guesses
