Well done for asking for help Hopefully there are enough posts here for you to feel informed and optimistic- Type 2 diabetes is serious and can be reversed. You may feel ashamed of yourself, but that it is a toxic myth that the food companies have promoted for years. The Book The Blood Sugar...

You are so correct. I work with diabetics and this is the greatest stumbling block to honest communication - ‘do not believe the toxic myth that diabetes is your fault’ (a quote from the excellent BLOODSUGAR 101 website). Have you seen Mike Dow’s book - the brain sugar fix? I expect my...

Apologies for typos - expect ‘off days’ especially if you are tired or stressed; stay curious and you will get through it.

This is really exciting - as you say a breakthrough. Have you come across Dr Mike Dow - The sugar brain fix ? Science is finally supporting why moving to a life sustaining low carb foods is so hard. Expect off days and going being curious

This is great food; go on enjoying it.

The bread does not need proving - you just mix and drop into a tin. Once cooked and cool, slice thinly; 2 slicesis 5x3 inches are really satisfying

Thank you all for such personal & detailed feedback. I feel you are such a committed group - great to hear of the weight loss and fall in gly Hb you are experiencing and that the recipe is not needed.. Many of my patient's can spend their entire appointment telling me what they are not eating...

Thanks great to hear that Lidl high protein works for you. I will suggest it to my patients. The key line for me is that you say half a roll really satisfies you. As for me being a baker - I am not! Dropping the ingredients into a bowl mix it up like making concrete and tip into low loaf tin...

I wished to know if any members have found a bread that does not make their sugars spike. I am a GP working with diabetics - my diabetics all tell me what they have had to give up; I just say that if eating 1 unt is enough it is fine. I have a bread recipe that is so satisfying that 1 slice is...

This is most likely a false hypo ... It says your body is working perfectly and it is not dangerous - just quite alarming! The fast release sugars cause a signal telling your liver to convert the sugars to fat. As soon as the digestion process slows down your sugars dip. Drinking a glass or 2 or...

I love the support being offered above - stay curious ... if your weight and waist are returning to normal you are on the right track. Metformin is not the problem, it is helping the process. These feelings are really scary - as a GP I wish the term 'false hypo' was more widely used and...

These feelings are really scary - as a GP I wish the term 'false hypo' was more widely used and understood. Your body has reset the higher sugar levels as being normal. Falling below these levels is safe but scary. I recommend drinking 1 - 2 glasses of water and thinking back about what foods...
