Whatever you're doing, it's clearly working. I use milk in coffee too with no adverse affects.

There was a time when a diagnosis would have been made on the basis of 2 fasting levels over 7. A hbA1C of 6.1 is clearly indicative of a Prediabetes diagnosis too. Heavily influenced by high fasting numbers no doubt. I found the quickest fix for fasting numbers, esp if you have a good phase 2...

Tried the Livlife today, a really tasty ham and cheese sandwich and a creamy coffee... Spike of less than 1 mmol/L so a resounding success. Added to my must have shopping list.

Can't say I'd disagree. It's not so dark that it is causing me concern though. It's just not as light as when I was going 20 times a day. Back then it was mostly clear, now it's yellow, sometimes lighter and sometimes darker. If I've taken solgar vm75 it can be green for a few hours or pink if...

Anorexia is at 18 so that low would signify 6ft under for sure.

I put it down to the fact that I'm not urinating anywhere near as much now I have tighter BG control. About 5 times a day instead of hourly at least.

I hope so because mines the same. Bowel movements less frequent too. I just put it down to diet change and didn't think to ask.

What you are eating is considered healthy for a non diabetic. To get control of your BS, your diet is completely wrong as it's predominantly carbs and that is why you can't get better control.

Yes I can imagine that for someone who has tight control of their condition it would take a great deal of persuasion to hand that control to electronics. That said, I know a few type 1 who have learning disabilities and rely on others to administer who would benefit tremendously from such a...

Must be a godsend for the user. I'm surprised they aren't at the fully auto stage yet where it works reactively. I guess there's a lot to consider and get right first.

1 meal a day is perfectly sustainable. I've done it successfully for 30 yrs and maintain a BMI of 20.5 now. Where I went wrong over the years was eating the wrong foods for my 1 meal a day and it caught up with me. I find lchf eliminates the hunger completely as on a high carb diet I'd be...

Are any of these pumps fully automated yet? Constant monitoring and adjustment without user intervention?

Brilliant I'll do that.... I've been missing bread badly, a few more options is great.

I can see with a bit of imagination they can become part of daily diet. Surprisingly filling too... 3 rashers, 2 eggs a sausage and half a roll have well and truly filled me up.

I'm eating one now with bacon, egg and a sausage. I can work with them now. better than zero bread for sure.

I just warmed one up in the nuke for ten seconds and then lashed it with a bucket load of kerrygold.... Much much better, thanks.

In simple terms, ignore all the western dietary advice from the last 40 yrs and buy only full fat dairy produce. Use full fat butter and cream and eat plenty of healthy dietary fat, eat eggs, as many as you like and plenty of meat and fish. Bacon and egg is a perfect breakfast for diabetics...

I had high hopes, I grabbed a few today, rushed home and was completely underwhelmed. I hope they are an acquired taste because on first impressions I just don't like the taste or texture. Back to the drawing board for a bread alternative I guess.

Yes, you can. It would appear you have impaired fasting glycemia but normal postprandial insulin response. It's the IFG that raises the hba1c level. You may or may not progress to impaired glucose Tolerance and subsequent T2d onset, however it is less likely than if you had both IFG and IGT...

A Prediabetes diagnosis would be indicated by a fasting glucose level of 6-7mmol/L and/or an hba1c result of 40-48. I had a fasting level of 6.7 and an hba1c of 38 and was told by my doctor that all was well and I was not diabetic. He failed to tell me that I am very much at risk of...
