    What was your fasting blood glucose? (with some chat)

    5.9 this morning, which was repeated 1 & a half hours after breakfast (egg, sour dough toast & avocado) & green tea. Quite a low reading for me at this time of day - usually, I would be 6.4 & 6.8 respectively.

    Does the heat make you feel ill

    High Readings First Thing

    I'm exactly the same. Been diabetic for 10 yrs, never taken any drugs or treatment for it - just plenty of exercise, low carb diet & lost 3 stone. My pre bkfst readings are usually the highest of the day. They used to be 6.4 to 7.6 before the 800 cal. diet; now they are in the range 5.8 to 6.8...

    Are you Diabetic or diabetic? Work with me on this one...!

    I am diabetic. It has no effect on my life - as far as I know. I treat it by eating a Michael Mosley diet, maintaining my lost weight & rigorous exercise. I have no medical symptoms (I have never had any, except a slight case of thrush - which got me diagnosed in the first place). Basically, I...

    8-week Blood Sugar Diet

    I have been on this diet (I am type 2) since 1st. Feb. I have lost 1st. 8 lb. After the first month, my average blood sugar level was 5.2. I have been on a couple of holidays in this time & strayed away from the diet a little, but soon re-adjusted to it once back home. Also, my strict discipline...

    8 WEEK BLOOD SUGAR DIET AND IT WAS ALL GOING SO WELL HELP!

    Mallins My experience of this diet is somewhat similar - to a degree. I had been on it for 5 weeks before going on holiday for 7 days., during which I ate a lot of food most of it healthy (but a lot more than I was used to on the diet). To my surprise I only put on 1 pound 12 ounces on...

    Dr Mosley and the diet that reverses type 2 diabetes.

    I've been on the Mosley diet for over 4 weeks. No problems, except for constipation. My blood sugar readings after meals have dropped from an average of 7.0 to 5.4. My readings at times away from meal times are down from 6.5 to 5.0. As soon as I have a slice of bread, my readings increase to 6.8...
