[QUOTE="pleinster, post: 1627691, member: 221545"] Hi. Sounds like you are pretty focused when it comes to diet so I reckon you will have very little trouble adapting further when you know exactly what foods are having a negative impact on your blood sugar. Regardless of pretty usual "advice" from a lot of diabetic nurses etc, many of us here believe that the best way to stay in control of the levels is to use a meter to self-test. You may already know this. Personally, I stick loosely to a low carb diet and that works for me. I did stick to it pretty rigidly for about a year and half and find I can now tolerate a few more carbs which is nice. I too have only the one effective kidney (following a transplant required due to an inherited condition...the other rubbish two are still in there). I got my diabetes from steroids taken as anti-rejection treatment. Anyway..good luck, I'm sure you'll be the kind type to stay in control. [/QUOTE]
