Default OMG, can this be real?

Hi all, I'm a newbie here, diagnosed with Type II in 2004 and have been on Metformin ever since.

Last year I stopped my meds and tried to manage my diet, failing miserably. I finally got meds again two months ago but even with them, my sugars were constantly in the 200-300 range.

Well, as I'd been taking 1700 mg. a day...

I'm now on day 8 and have lost 12 lbs, and for the last three days, my numbers have been in the 120s or lower. Tonight they were in the 100s after dinner.

I've never seen them that low, and it's freaking me out!

Can anyone offer some advice?

Thanks in advance!
