[QUOTE="nemiabonny, post: 1274824, member: 310306"] During all the 25 years and 3 months that I have been a type 2 diabetic, I have always been eating HCLF meals. Most everything that I eat is heart-healthy, natural, fresh (raw or cooked), unprocessed, and whole. I totally avoid snacks, hard and soft drinks, salty, oily, and sugary foods. I eat only twice a day, and run the stairs 4x/day, for a total time of 1 hour/day. Why do I eat carby foods? Because that's what I have been eating even before I became diabetic. They are cheap, readily available, and the easiest to digest. I am very aware that they cause high blood sugar levels which I always get every day but they don't harm me. Why? Maybe because I exercise twice as many times as I eat. I have not had any hypo problems and diabetes complications. Most of my past A1c's were between 5.2% and 6.3%. The one I had on October 3, 2016, was 5.8%. Bonny Damocles Male, 80 1/2 years old, 137 lbs., 5'7" First 25-year untreated and complication-free type 2 diabetic Not taking any pharma drugs for any health problems [/QUOTE]
