i am inclined to believe that low can diet is yet another market-friendly charade to let you eat without too many restraint on quantity. What pinches hard is the call to intermittent fasting or to keeping the food quantities small. Restraint and self-control goes against the grain of market...

Hey
So I was only diagnosed with type one in September and before this diagnosis i didnt always eat breakfast, either because I would wake up too late or just because I'm not hungry in the mornings. This became my routine. But since I was put on fixed doses i felt like I absolutely had to eat...

As I posted elsewhere, I am a Type 2 of long standing (16 years) who went on a LC diet in June and has so far shed 13kg.
I was on 36 unites of Lantus and about ten units of Novorapid when I started and two metformin a day. Consultations with the diabetic nurse (who has not objected to my diet)...

After starting Dr Mosley Blood Sugar Diet with intermittent fasting...7 days later this morning it's 5.0 which has never happened even when I was taking metformin.

Hi there all I am very puzzled about this fasting and first reading in the morning. What is the difference if you haven't eaten since say 6 pm and test first thing in the morning say 5 am before the first coffee is that fasting ?
Hello! I have recently bought a blood glucose test as I am interested in tracking my results. I am not diagnosed as diabetic.
Yesterday I had a fasting test result of 5.7. Two hours after eating it was 6.7. I did a test as soon as I woke up this morning (13/14 hours since last eating) and it...

Hi all,
I have recently moved from the UK to Costa Rica for a job for 2 years and I am struggling a little with my diabetic control. In the UK I was well controlled, minimal hypos and an HbA1c of 6.5 (when I left in June 2016). I have been Type 1 diabetic for 25 years, since I was 2 years old...
I was on holiday last week, I had a big fry up minus the carbs every day for breakfast, probably close on 1000 calories, then spent the day doing stuff before a smaller meal in the evening with three whiskeys to finish off. So probably eaten 1600 calories but with more exercise than usual...
I just received the summons to go get my yearly blood and urine test.
The paperwork this time says "this blood test no longer needs to be a fasting one" - to which I shout hallelujah, because I hate not having anything to eat or drink except water until usually well past 11am, since the Clinic...
I've had a sweet tooth all my 53 years. I was diagnosed pre-diabetic six years ago. And for the last six years the pattern has been: 1) I incrementally improve my diet... 2) I return for another A1c test (hopeful that I've "moved the needle" a little bit).... and 3) I'm STILL about 6.2%. It has...
