[QUOTE="Caroline P, post: 87117, member: 20991"] [b]Re: Anyone use Byetta?[/b] Hi Ken, Ty so much for the warm welcome :) I have indeed been on a self-introduced low carb diet for about 18 months now and at first saw a wonderful drop in glucose and weight but alas even after getting a puppy into the household for the additional excercise I saw all the good work slowly come undone again and by the end of last year I felt almost back to square one. I do have an occasional blip (a slice of white toast or handful of crisps from an unattended packet lol) but other than that I've tried to be as good a girl as I can (found a sugar free jelly can stave off even the worst sweet-tooth moment). I think my downfall is not so much eating the wrong foods but just too much of the right foods during the day at work. I nibble on crispbreads and fruit slices, melba toast slices or a rye bread and think the grazing might be having a big part to play in the continual high readings. Not much of an opportunity in my line of work to take a walkabout or stretch the legs. I know if I didn't take the nibbly bits in with me I wouldn't have them to eat but I'd hate to give in to the evil of the vending machine lurking in the office kitchen and thought if I took my own "healthier option" it might help rather than hinder. Anyhoo, ty for the advises I am also going to use being given the Byetta as a chance to have another overhaul of my diet and try again to sit on my hands where practical and not let them wander to the Ryvetta, my tummy may well thank my for that one to as wheat based products do tend to aggrivate an already "irrate" stomach lol If the Byetta does indeed stave off some of my "munchies" then I'll tip my hat to the "spit", this just may be the leg up I need to get me back on track again :) Best Regards Carrie Ooo yes forgot to mention I am indeed starting with the smaller dose and need to wait til Sunday to start so that day 30 coincides with my next hospital visit and then the upgrade to the big one hehe :) [/QUOTE]
