hello all! Hope you all are well and had a great holiday! Insurance had switched me from lantus to Tresiba. Reading about Tresiba it sounds to be more powerful and much longer lasting. It also says it takes 4-6 days for the full effect. Some people say thier sugars are not steady. I was...

I miss my friends !! Hope everyone is well!! Guess who’s allergic to avocado lol. Yup...sure am. Thought you might like to know I just started taking CBD( hemp) oil and holy man have my sugars dropped, too much in fact. I’ll be working that out. Fastings are about 30 ml/dL lower and having a...

Who eats duck fat? Sadly I recently found the butter before meals helping my bg isn’t going to work anymore. If I questioned dairy intolerance I no longer do. I was very achy and swollen and was getting worse everyday. I can’t live on just mayo and olive oil for fats lol Doing research into...

ive been having odd readings lately. Same food, same plan. Nothings changed except one thing... I started noticing when I have broth with butter or ghee for bf and in the afternoon my readings are a bunch lower. I already eat fat with every meal but the butter seems to be slowing everything...

I know this has been discussed many times but to refine it a bit. Do your insulin needs go up or down in cold weather and do you know approx when? Mine have recently gone up and fastings are way up. Afraid to take more lantus as I’ve had hypos but not even close lately. It seems odd that it’s...

3 tablespoons butter 2 tablespoons onion ( I used green) 4 tablespoons HWC 1 tablespoon cream cheese. I used an ounce of Boursin instead. Garlic salt and pepper to taste Optional is spicy seasoning. Well I guess everything is optional Melt. Poured over sauted mushrooms and chicken thighs...

I have been completely enjoying my melted Brie with butter roasted pecans but I’m all achy. Over did cheese yesterday. Brie, cheese omelet and a Colby jack stick. I want my dairy!! Anyone else get achy with dairy? Sometimes it’s worth it but not today.

what kind of sauce do you use that are very close to no carb? Flavored mayo is a fav but I still have this nagging feeling about canola oil not being healthy. My mayo is non gmo expeller pressed canola. I am a sauce ( mayo ) junkie but can’t come up with anything else to put on chicken / turkey...

so it’s time for a new meter. My old one was discontinued and I’m getting close to running out of strips by the end of the year. History. A1C last 4 6 month tests were 5.1 ( average 100 US). According to my meter readings I was always surprised as i thought it would be closer to 4.6 (85)...

I weigh protein and keep it to .8g per kg lean body mass divided through the day I weigh avocado as to not short myself and it seems the best balance to keep my bs low and slow is for every 28 G protein I use 28 g avocado I don’t weight my veggies as I know exactly how much o can eat at each...

Somethings changed and the addition of a daily egg is the only thing I can think off

After sitting out on a forum Ive been deeply and passionately involved in, I am seeing things through a new set of bifocals. The nasties in my camp will probably always be nasties in my camp but there are so many more completely awesome people on the forum so those nasties will have to take a...

I adore my one ounce melted cheese tray with two or three differnt cheeses. A few small bites of each but I'm thinking it's constipating me. I think when we were just eating Brie it actually helped. Then we added either butterkase, Colby jack, Gouda or havarti. Now things have changed. Melted...

i know butter is a MCT. What I don't know is how it effects bg and satiety. Olive oil is of course pure fat but it does zip, nada, ziltch to slow any bg rise nor does it satisfy hunger. Does butter?? I can't just use olive oil as a fat or I'm starving it seems like water. Mayo is slightly better...

anyone save most of their protein for later in the day, especially low carbers and mostly eat fat like nuts, cheese and avo in th eearlier part of the day? I have been spreading mine out through the day but think my liver over reacts earlier, kind of like the IR in the morning. So thinking of...

perfect time to test. Wasn't sure if it was carb, fiber or fat. Today stupid high bs day for NO reason then plummeted. So at 70 decided to just eat avo and see what happened. One hour later 88. Cheese snack with vodka which lowers me. Dinner 98! So obviously some carbs there and the fiber isn't...
