[QUOTE="douglas99, post: 633182, member: 38028"] As [USER=88961]@AndBreathe[/USER] says, there is little point being able to eat carbs, if medication is keeping them in check, hence as I keep saying, I have a phased reduction planned, and should be off the Sitagliptin entirely at the next review, Maybe cutting entirely is seen to be better for some, we decided to cut meds slowly, and review every three months. 'That you find yourself "forced" to eat pot noodle or pasties when, by your own example, out diving is merely a lack of consideration for your own well-being' I scuba dive, I am thinking of learning to ski, one of my daughters dives with me, the other like skydiving. Lots of things can be a lack of consideration for our own well being. I don't really see a low GI/GL diet as a carb fest, I see it as I diet that suits me, allows me to reduce my meds, with the aim to be off them entirely, and still keep my blood within a normal range. But also keeps my options open. [USER=100904]@Pipp[/USER] As to the newcastle diet, as you yourself said, what is there to lose by it? I'm not entirely back into the normal range, unless I do watch what I eat. That doesn't mean I will switch back to a diet that got me into trouble, I like my diet now. My previous eating pattern is gone forever. I like fresh food, I like cooking, I cook low GI, I eat a controlled amount. I can't see it changing. Even after my chinese pig out, I made up for it in calories the next day. But I would to have the option of a pot noodle, and not then swim for an hour under 25m of water, in a dry suit at 9C knowing I have normal BS either way. [/QUOTE]
