[QUOTE="Missy2302, post: 964450, member: 212818"] My sons blood sugars have been higher than 30 sometimes and says that he doesn't feel any different than when they are in the teens or lower. I don't have any hereditary factors for glucose intolerance apart from my son with type 2 diabetes. I do make sure that my family eats healthily, most of what I cook is home made from scratch. I make sure that my family has at least 3 or 4 decent dinners a week as me and my hubby rarely have breakfast or lunch as we just don't feel like eating until halfway through the afternoon. I baked some cookies today and made a chicken curry with spinach for tonight's dinner with rice, chips and naan bread. My son had 2 spoons of rice, half a naan bread and no chips. My hubby complained about the spinach in the curry and said that the only green vegetables he would eat are peas. Cutting out sugary foods is easy, but ive been told by my doctor today that cutting out carbs is a bad idea as I could be not getting the nutrients that my body needs and by eating complex carbs is good for slow release energy. My doctor has advised me to download the NHS 12 week diet and exercise plan and print it off, which I have done and it has given me a lot of advice. My doctor has been good to me so far and I've been with the same doctor for 16 years without no problem. [/QUOTE]
