[QUOTE="Blackwater5, post: 2482814, member: 552414"] I was given the steroid tablets 10 days ago to deal with an autoimmune skin condition caused by lipigliptin. So I'm trying to control diabetes while taking something that causes it. As far as I know I'm supposed to just stop the steroids in3 days time after taking 30 mg for 2 weeks. If I can do that I hope that my diabetes becomes controllable. I've decided on a high protein and fat plus low carb diet although I can't start it until tomorrow lunch. So plan on high fat and protein yoghourt, berries, eggs, cheese and salmon (so far). but I've not yet thought of fresh meat because I'm a terrible cook and I haqve to keep my cholesterol down. I had high cholesterol in the past which dropped due to the weight I've lost., My fasting level today was 8.9, up by 1.5 on yesterday, but I don't know if the cause is diet or steroids. After a breakfast of oats I spikrd to 15.3, but once again don't know the reason unless it was having spaghetti Bolognese for dinner. I'm trying to decide what to have for lunch. More oats, banana sandwhich, baked beans on toast, or I have some Birds Eye chargrilled chicken (frozen, processed) that I could have with salad leaves. I always have bread and don't know what I can replace it with. I can't make my own soda bread as my loaves are inedible, but I don't know how I can replace it. [/QUOTE]
