I had a similar experience bringing down my A1C.
People talk a lot about meat, but not enough about dairy. My prayers were answered at the altars of feta, greek yogurt, half and half, butter, cottage cheese, etc. They made salads not suck. They opened up a ton of lower carb dessert options. My gut health improved. All of my health improved.
I no longer treat these humble foods as optional extras. They perfectly fill the gap in my daily protein needs. They were never unwelcome, just forgotten.

- sublinear 3mo agoCholesterol levels are normal. I did mention salads, but fair enough, I forgot to mention how important fiber is. Some people look to these comments for advice. I'm not advocating for a crazy diet. I'm just saying people ignore the basics and assume that healthy food has to be miserable. Small changes add up and make a big impact.
