I was diagnosed T2 in December after my gestational diabetes decided to stick around. My A1C was 6.7 when diagnosed. I'm 5'5" and weight 125, and have always worked out daily. Since being diagnosed have started on a low carb, high protein/high fat diet. My doc put me on 500mg of Metformin in the morning and evening. All my post meal numbers have been good but I cannot get my fasting #s down. They consistenly range from 105-125 (that was the highest I've had in a long time). I have a 7 month old son who never sleeps through the night so I'm always up in the middle of the night with him. I notice when I'm up with him that I am hungry and always wake up hungry. I have a snack before bedtime every night and experiment with what I eat but nothing seems to be bringing it down. I'm getting so frustrated and scared. Any suggestions?? I go back to the doctor tomorrow for a follow-up so will ask her again but hoping others have advice in the meantime. Thank you.
