Oh! Also I have fruit salad after my Dinner

I'm curious about your diet? I have cut out all bread,pasta,rice,potatoes, but I do eat porridge in the morning basically because I am not really a breakfast person and can just about tolerate it to take my tablet in the mornings, A basic days food would be B porridge L cheese omelette D salmon...

I only take the tablets when needed, but mainly it's when I do some sort of exercise, ie walking gardening hoovering,maybe I shouldn't work so hard!lol

Hi, I'm one one Metformin a day, I have tested when feeling "odd" and I have been 3.6 , I have recently started the LCHF diet and have lost 10lb, but it's odd cos if I have a bad nights sleep I seem to put some back on! Or is it my imagination ? Lol

Yes they do the job, but wasn't sure if they were the wrong thing to do as they are full of sugar.

Type two

when I go out for a walk for example, after about 45 mins I start to go low and take a glucose tablet which helps, are these good for me?

Amazing, wish I had seen this when first diagnosed!

I am really impressed with your weight loss! I have just started (two weeks) on no bread,rice,potatoes, pasta, I need to lose at least 3 stone, I have lost 10 lbs so far, but had a drink the other night to my regret put almost 3lb back on overnight! But it's off again now, stories like yours...

Thank you Sue

Thank you that is very interesting, I'm worried that if the doc says come off Metformin although that would be good I am concerned I wouldn't be able to afford my puffer for my emphysema as I am only 59.

Thank you for your reply, I am on Metformin one a day, the readings are about 6months apart, mainly because no one told me I had to go exactly every three months! The doctor and nurse say different things.

B Porridge/tea L Sausage /cheese / onion omelette Stewing steak (and veg) and cauliflower /Greens Dessert home made fruit salad And a three mile walk!

I have been told my numbers are 38mmol ? It was 42 mmol, what does this mean? How does it relate to blood G tests ?

That's what I thought.

Thank you for your answer, I can't drink tea etc without a sweetener of some sort and was lead to believe that Splenda is the best alternative to sugar. Shame it is quite expensive though!;)

Splenda not splendid!,,, predictive txt!

I watched a programme a few months back about how granulated sugar is processed, this was pre diabetes diagnosis, I decided then to come off Granulated sugar and use Splendid instead as was recommended by the programme, is Splenda ok? Is it as bad as sugar ? Does anyone have any idea?

Sorry

Was there anything else in it? ie preservatives colourings etc?
