[QUOTE="Lamont D, post: 600796, member: 85785"] I admire your results and your opinion that diabetics have little reason to test. I am carb and sugar intolerant. If I have a salad which is very low carb, if you fancy a little dressing on it how will you know that it won't affect your BGLs? I am like yourself in control of my diet and my portion sizes and when and if I snack. I do not have to always check my bloods but to monitor, not obsess, you eat to your meter. I would be truly knackred and probably Ill and a lot more less fitter and heavier if I didn't use my meter. I can eat a slice of pizza and then spike with super foods. Yet, believe or not, grapes spike me. We are all different and have different symptoms, what works for you won't work for someone else. The only way that the diversity of diabetic conditions can be monitored is by testing! [/QUOTE]
