Greetings all. It’s my first post on this wonderful forum. I stumbled upon the forum while browsing though RH related searches on a random morning I was feeling ******. Knowing there are others who have this condition certainly makes me feel less alone.
I’ve been diagnosed with RH via a GTT test. Fasting insulin levels were not high so that was good news. I’ve combed though the forums and implemented most of the strategies provided. Thank you guys.
I still get night time hypos on a pretty regular basis (few days a week) that ruins half of the waking day and it’s really frustrating. I’m pretty sensitive to my levels and when I test in the mornings I feel ****** typically levels range from about 3.8-4.2.
Periodically I get hypos in the day. The symptoms are mild and easily resolved when I eat but it’s the nighttime episodes that are most difficult.
Here’s my diet plan:
Breakfast:
2 scoops protein powder (no carbs)
3 tablespoon olive oil
4 whole eggs
Lunch:
Meat or seafood
Greens
Snack:
Avocado
Berries
Nuts
Dinner:
Similar to lunch
Before bed:
2 scoops protein powder
3 tablespoon olive oil
On the 3 days that I weight train I have 4 scoops of oats before and after training. I have to incorporate that since I find that it’s really difficult to maintain muscle mass doing full keto (I’m in the fitness industry so have to look a certain way).
Supplements:
Fish oil
Vitamin D
Magnesium
Berberine (any good reviews on this?)
One thing I haven’t tried is intermittent fasting. I need to maintain my caloric intake and find it hard to stuff everything in 8 hours.
Hoping some kind souls here can help look though my plan and see if anything is missing? The biggest question is how to prevent night time hypo. Thanks a lot you guys are awesome!
