@knitonepurl2 -
I have dealt with microscopic colitis on and off for years and then also diagnosed with Type 2 diabetes. Over the years I have taken prednisone for asthma and this also helped my colitis. However, it caused weight gain, worsening diabetes control.
I succeeded in losing 45 lbs over one year by eating a low carb diet. It was perfect for me, kept me full. Mostly proteins and some healthy fats. My blood sugar improved so much that I didn’t have to take my oral medication for glucose control.
I don’t tolerate fiber and stay away from any fiber supplements.

I am happy for you to lose the weight. That is very difficult. I also have microscopic colitis, recently learning how to eat correctly. Would you offer tips on eating for colitis? Thank you

Thanks for your response, I appreciate your ideas. Where can I find the info about how to eat proteins and healthy fats. Is there an easy meal planto follow? Did you eat 3 meals a day or small snacks throughout the day? Trying to curb the high and low alarms on my sensor. Thanks for your input.
