People who tell lies.
My GP (Dr Doom).
Saw my diabetic nurse on Friday, two of them following a big jump in Hba1c 40 to 101.
Just the salient points remember, please dont shoot the messenger, I had a beasting the other evening on here.
1. Be careful with fruit even fructose will raise bgs. Just enough to fit in the palm of your hand.
2. Go back to all you learned on the xpert course, the timeline is on my PC, you went on the course, your next Hba1c was 40 down from 58.
3. Yes, 1/3rd carbs 1/3rd protein 1/3 veg the 'eat well plate' you have to have carbs to give your body fuel. Too much carbs will be stored as fat.
4. What do you mean LCHF? you learnt on the course fats are bad and cause atherosclerosis. Dont have sausages they are full of fat - but they are grilled slowly - NO you must avoid all fats. Trim your bacon you have for breakfast like all meats.
5. I have breakfast, then nothing till dinner which is served 4-8pm then I have charcoal based crackers cheese and tomato for supper around 10pm.
NO supper sounds like a snack not a meal you must have 3 proper meals per day, what happened to lunch!!
Dont eat after 8-9pm.
6. Dont let any web forum steer you away from XPERT course, because you have solid evidence it worked for you.
7. No, dont binge on the weekend then expect your body to fix itself IS correct. You can have treats but watch your intake and dont consume your whole weekend treats on a Saturday night as you're doing. You'll never control snacking if you binge on a weekend. Why dont you test on the weekend??? You need to see what kind of high spikes your body is experienced with out of control binge.
8. YES, I agree buy a set of scales with tare??! function to get yourself used to controlling portions.
9. Use the GI index as another guide is correct. Eat baby / new potatoes not Maris Pipers which is near the top of GI table. Enough to fit in the palm of your hand again.
10. Keep testing till we get your Hba1c under control, after that its not our policy to support sundries for testing. Some GP'S do some dont, we dont except in short cases like yours.
11. We can't do a Hba1c test now we have to wait 90 days so we can do a test end on July.
If you've read this post to here, thank you.
Since last week when I've rejoined this forum;
A. bought an electronic scales so
I can get used to measuring
out portions to manage carbs
Better.
B. Bought a marble based
Based wire cheese cutter
So I can control measures
On the XPERT course they
Said matchbox portion per
Day.
C. Recognised my failure which
Is grazing through the day.
I've started reading packets
Again, I'll bring questions
Here.
Think I'm tooled up it's beating the grazing and constant craving
Will be hardest for me.
Here we go then, I must loose another 1-2 stone too.
