[QUOTE="Sweettooth81, post: 2498786, member: 552940"] Hey thanks for remembering. My doc has not tested me for anything else. My high levels seem to fall on deaf ears with the answer of just cut carbs and sugars. I think that he has the impression that I'm lying about my diet. To the post that said about not skipping meals - I've only just started doing that because my bloods were still so high. Skipping meals is the only thing that brings my bloods down! My diet has changed from White bread toast for breakfast, sandwich or pasta from the supermarket meal deals (yes I would have crisps and choc) for lunch and dinner would be big portions with carbs. While pots being a large staple. Now I'm always eating salad. No big protein at lunch because my digestive system can't handle it. Dinner is veg or salad with a little meat. I only have rice once a week. It's my treat. I limit my carb intake to dinners and it's usually under 100g. Only today was I having carbs at lunch. But even having leafy salad and veg will keep my bloods over 10. That's why I rebelled and had carbs at lunch. I'm sick of my levels not changing when I'm eating so little! As for exercise. I'm up at 530 in work by 7. Working like a mental case until 5-6pm. Lunch is often eaten with a fork in one hand and pen in the other. Get home, dinner, tidy, more work and then it's 8/9pm sometimes 10 depending on the work load. I don't live in an area that's ok for walks or jogs in the dark/wee hours. I don't even know where to fit it in.... Hense why I'm unfit in the first place. :( [/QUOTE]
