Hey stiv, I saw your post at Drummer and Missy's about your Keto. I am not "paid", so replying here. About a year and a half ago. I got on Keto. In a month and 1/2 I reduced my glipizide from 15 mg to 5 mg and lost 15 pounds and the beauty of that was that I was not trying to lose weight and was not much over weight to start with. I admit I have back tracked a bit, put 5 pounds back on, but still at 5 mg of glipizide. I still cheat with too many sweets. I got to get focused again.
The first thing my doc said when I lost 15 and reduced my meds was "we might have to get you back on statins", then next visit, "blood pressure meds". I refused both from that pill pusher.
Hey, I am thinking of going back to Drummer and Missy's too.
