Hi, I was only diagnosed 2 months ago. I have an old meter from when I had pre-diabetes a year-and-a-half ago. The strips are 6 months out of date but I opened up a new package and tried to take a reading. I did eat something I probably shouldn't have which is fried plantains and I was...

How were the potatoes cooked the first time? I have had potato skins with bacon, cheese and sour cream and that works, I assume this is because there isn't much potato left and there is a lot of fiber plus the added protein and fat.

I have found that I didn't get a spike after eating refried beans or homemade Curry coconut beans and I was pretty happy about that

I do also enjoy epic foods such as Thai foods and curries from India and that helps. I'm buying many many cans of coconut milk that's for sure

I love meat, cheese eggs and I like salad which is what this ends up coming down to. I do miss Mexican, and potatoes. I feel stifled knowing that my diet is down to the meat group, fats and above-the-ground vegetables. If every single meal is just based on that and the fact that I have to...

I just love your food diary! That is the kind of food that I have been eating. What I need to do is get back into a regular exercise routine. I just can't stand the lack of variety on a very strict LCHF diet. It triggers kind of panic and depression in me sometimes. I like a lot of ethnic...

[emoji1]Well, you are not far not far off. Although at a menopausal age, I am not exhibiting any symptoms of that. I'm 5'4 which is on the short side and I am many many Stone overweight I think. I'm more of a grandma aquafit and yoga person then a rugby player LOL. I think I'm going to have to...

Hi, I'm 51 year old female and about 80 pounds overweight. I started out when I was diagnosed six weeks ago with the two-week lchf Diet Doctor plan with a maximum of 20 grams of carbs a day. I kept up with all the guidelines and I eat healthy Whole Foods. However, I find this too restrictive...

I also had a constant cough which I thought was due to the flu but that didn't go away for weeks after. I just got diagnosed with type 2 a month ago and I was about to go back to the doctor's about this cough but it seems to have disappeared. I am getting my blood sugar under control by using a...

That sounds like the best plan for me! I've been trying to cut down on my expenses!

Thanks! When I first started using the multiclix, I came close to ordering these crazy expensive wipes, but I couldn't afford the $60 and it gave me pause to think. It's bad enough that the strips are only partially covered and everything else is out of pocket (I live in Canada).

Hi, I was off all supplements, and trying to eat a healthy diet, when I was diagnosed with T2 a month ago. I also have Bipolar Type 2, which I have been trying to treat with medications for over 10 years. I decided a few months ago to get off these medications (many of which lead to major...

Hi, I'm new to this. Diagnosed with Diabetes 2 a month ago. The instructions on my new multiclix device say to clean weekly with these expensive soft cloths you have to order online. As far as I can see they do contain alcohol. From the reviews I see these wipes are said to be quite dry. Is...
