Welcome back, Ann. Happy to learn that your husband has committed to a lifestyle change to control his diabetes. Many new resources focused on diabetes, Dr Bernstein has put his lifetime of knowledge on YouTube, Dr Westman has a new on-line program, Dr Sarah Hallberg is brilliant at keeping her LC advice very simple, and Kelley Pounds, the LC RN and diabetes educator, has collected a zillion links to good info and a free diabetes diet book on her website.

Thanks for bumping up this thread...it should probably be a sticky. Kelley is a diabetes educator and has much experience with clients and knowing the range of time it may take to reduce medications. Dr Westman has said the same, from one day off a high dose, to months of reduction and having to keep some of the oral medications. Everyone is different and should be so blessed to work with a LC doctor who is available 24 hours for medical advice.
