Diabetic Weight Loss?

ncbound asked:

I have been a diabetic for 33 years now. I am very healthy and with no problems yet! My a1c is 6.1 and steady! Since I turned 40 my weight has become an issue. I exercise 4 times a week. My diet is great.  My doctor states that this is a side effect from taking insulin for 30+ years. I refuse to hear this. Are there any diabetics out there, 40+ who have any weight loss success stories that will help me? Your help is GREATLY appreciated!

Russell76 asked:
I desperately need to know what is best way to lower blood sugar naturally?I have a diagnosed diabetic condition and I’d like an alternative to all the medications I’m being given.  I hate the chemicals and they make me put on weight.

I’ve changed my diet and am eating what I believe to be a very healthy and nutritional diet plan.  Also, I’m exercising five times a week, however, by blood sugar levels are still very high

I can avoid insulin shots twice daily but have stopped the other medications.

Help!!!  What alternatives are there?  What is the best way to lower blood sugar naturally?
