Thanks for replying. I just don’t like the taste or normal milk so was wondering which alternative would be best or better really. I am researching them also but wondered if anyone has experience in these. My blood sugar was high this morning. More than normal and didn’t know if it was because...

I don’t normally drink normal milk. I have alpro my cuppa or oatly barista normally. Anyone have any views on these in relation to sugar content or which milk alternative would be good which has low sugar content??

I felt a bit weak when I first started no carbs but I found that eating eggs every day. Especially for breakfast. Kept me feeling ok. Or eating a few chicken drumsticks as a snack helps me to the next meal. I do the finger prick test but I’ve never tested that low before so I’m not sure. I’d...

5.2 this morning. But two days ago it was 6.4 ‍♀️

Ahh excellent. Thank you. Think I have a rough idea which way to go now. Thank you so much x

I’ll have a look thanks. I’m eating now Bacon, eggs, tomatoes, mushrooms, chicken, 5% beef mince, heck sausages, brocolli, cauliflower, asparagus (although I’m not keen), carrots, Brussels, Greek style or Greek yoghurt, raspberries and blackberries and babybel light cheese ????? Using no added...

Yes that’s very true. I was more trying to find out which foods I can readily buy by a quick glance at that to give me an idea then obviously as I’ve found out it’s portion size lol. Maybe I’m eating too many vegetables. I take it protein has no carbs in? Fish? Meat? Cheese? And butter? But WOW...

That’s great thank you. At the moment my carbs are coming from veg. And I am having half a plate of veg. So I’ll look into that. Thank you.

Can anyone just simplify how to read a food package for carbs. On the back of most packaging it’ll say “per 100g”. So how many grams of carbs for the “per 100g” would be low carb foods to go for ???? If that makes sense??

Like a jump in the levels you test. Just wondered if people high blood sugar made them ill so kept it stable. I’m new so these will be weird questions lol

Thank you for this

Do you feel ill if you have a high spike in BG?

I have anxiety and I’d say depression now since My sister died. I’m on a low dose of citalopram but I feel it needs increasing recently but I haven’t done it yet. Never had the other drug you say. But having them palpitations would make you feel more anxious. You’re definitely not alone in...

Can I ask - all food and drink will raise blood sugar - so what’s the aim of this prediabetic game?? To keep blood sugar pretty much level?? With no high spikes?

Thanks for your replies guys. I’ve never tested my blood before so this was a first. So I have no before eating result. Although I will do one tomorrow morning. I’ve always loved my carbs so I know that’s the problem for me. And Diet Coke. So since then I’ve switched to wholemeal bread and...

Hi. At the beginning of the year I had two blood tests and was diagnosed as prediabetic. With a number of 44. I don’t know what that means really other than it was bang in the middle of the prediabetic range. I am over weight and my diet has been bad. I decided to follow a healthier eating...
