I've heard of this. Honey is pretty **** natural - I wouldn't be urprised if there wee health benefits. I need to get some raw, natural honey and some suitable cinnamon. Maple Syrup is also natural - I wonder if that can be used???

I used to crave milk. It has a lot of lactose (sugar) in it, and I eventually weaned myself off it completely.

Depends on your attitude towards diabetes. and what Type you are.

I drive a convertable ( :thumbup: ) and can honesly say that I feel better in the summer months when I drive home with the roof down. Sunshine is GREAT. I love it. Shame we can't get it all year round. :thumbdown: Vit. D is GREAT. I love it. ALTHOUGH - I did actually stop taking a...

You have to consider the "Cummulative Carb Effect" (copyright Patch 2011 :wink: ) When you are on a low carb diet - cheese n' eggs WON'T effect your BG. HOWVER - if you are eating carbs, and then eat cheese n' eggs, the fat in the cheese WILL have an effect on your BG. Carbs hang around in...

You've MORE THAN earned it!!! Great work.

Bingo! Both low in carbs.

I can empathise with this! It like - stuff that wouldn't normally bother me get's my back RIGHT up and I have to speak out. It's a surprise to people when I do this. It happens when I have been running at pretty high BG's for a while, then suddenl;y come down into the normal range...

This thread is EXTREMELY promising!!! Some good results, and info on buying/dosing yourself! Looks like I need to get me some Bitter Melon caps...

Cheese n' eggs while lo-carbing are a GOD SEND! Eat as much as you like of each. The variety of cheeses is awesome - and there are very few that you should avoid (just check the label!)

Where can I get some????

These are the ones I use (and will buy again!): I was taking 1 a day. When I start again, I'll take 2 a day for a couple of days to kick start the benefits. :thumbup: (Although at one point I was taking 50,000IU (in powdered capsule form), but I didn't get the same benefit from those as I...

Which insane workout? Do you mean the interval type work out, where you go hell for leather for 30 seconds, then rest, then go at it again for 30 seconds? It doesn't seem insane to me. Sounds like a very efficient way of exercising.

Vitamin D is AWESOME stuff. I did suppliment with it a while back (when I was feeling pretty terrible) and did so at 10,000iu a day. After a fortnight, I felt remarkably well. I was taking the liquid caps of Vit D. I keep meaning to buy more - I can genuinely feel an improvement in my...

Also look into the Gastric Sleeve. Another effective weight loss method that I am seriously considering. (£8.5K, though...)

Now THIS is the Diabetes forum I remember from days of old!!! (Must be a full moon or something...) Congratulations to all of you for defending yourselves so well.

Swap it for lard, or butter. But avoid Crisco like the PLAGUE!

Great news! I've got a bit of a theory on the cumulative effect of carbs. If I was in your position, I'd be doing the Newcastle diet again (maybe only for 2 or 3 weeks) to re-set your body prior to cutting out pizza & bread...

Is this true? I was diagnosed at 19 (years of age, and stone...), and MODY has never been mentioned to me...

I gave up lo-carbing, and telling the truth. But not in that order. :wink:
