I’ve beaten diabetes — and lost 4st into bargain

Jane Akshar, 64, is a former IT consultant. Widowed with one 28-year-old daughter, she lives in Barry, South Walkes. She says:

Shortly after having my daughter in 1991, I was diagnosed with Type II diabetes. By 1998, I’d been put on insulin injections and was having to inject myself four times a day. I thought that was simply how my life would be from that point onwards.

It was a friend who mentioned last summer that there were diets where you could reverse your diabetes and at first I thought he was talking absolute rubbish. But I looked online and found that it was true. "

I thought I’d be a diabetic for life but it just shows it can be done by anyone at any age. Jane Akshar is pictured above before her weight loss

I checked with my local surgery that it would be safe to embark on the diet and they couldn’t have been more supportive. Although it doesn’t sound like many calories, I found the diet really easy.

I’ve now lost nearly four stone and at my last blood test I was told I’m no longer diabetic. It’s incredible

I was having things like scrambled eggs and smoked salmon for breakfast, salad with chicken for lunch and then some other meat with vegetables for dinner. I was never hungry. 

With my diabetic nurse’s help I gradually reduced my insulin injections as my blood sugar came down and in July of this year, I took my last injection. 

I’d gone from 120 units a day to nothing. I wanted to skip out of the surgery because I was so happy.

I’ve now lost nearly four stone and at my last blood test I was told I’m no longer diabetic. It’s incredible. 

I thought I’d be a diabetic for life but it just shows it can be done by anyone at any age.

I only eat one meal a day – such as sprouts with bacon and toasted almonds – around 5pm and then nothing else for 24 hours. 

I don’t find it difficult at all. If you’re eating the right foods, which contain fat and protein, you find that you’re full up after one meal anyway.

If more people did this we would have more money in the health service.

Will this plan work for you?

Your odds of remission from type 2 diabetes through diet are a ‘dead cert’ soon after diagnosis, they drop to 50/50 in the first ten years, then fall further. 

But remember that sometimes a 100/1 outsider will beat the odds. We’ve seen people who have had type 2 diabetes for more than 20 years reverse their condition. 

No matter how long you’ve had type 2 diabetes, it is never too late to give this plan a try!

So I am 100/1 outsider!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
