[QUOTE="kokhongw, post: 1449020, member: 277199"] 1. Your fasting BG is still elevated. This will improve overtime with lower carbs. Normal is < 5.0, good control is < 6.0. Dr Jason Fung's blog gives a good explanation of how to lower it... [URL]https://intensivedietarymanagement.com/dawn-phenomenon-t2d-8/[/URL] 2. Low carb is usually anywhere from 20-120g. Though most require < 50g to maintain ketosis and weight loss. 3. Lean meat is protein. Excessive protein will still spike insulin and glucose...though much less than carbs. 4. This is where everyone of us may have a different metabolic response. You will have to measure your results and share with us if the indulgence is worth it. 5. I find taking virgin coconut oil to be helpful. This is because our T2D brain have likely developed insulin resistance and have impaired glucose uptake. It requires either elevated glucose levels or alternative fuel to keep it happy... 6. Fruit juices will be likely more contentious. Fruit tea should be less so... [/QUOTE]
