[QUOTE="Aldebaran, post: 1770689, member: 102468"] I'm confused myself Lamont but I was shocked at the time. However, he did say that my Hba1c was good and when I described what I ate for my breakfast, he did ask if I ate porridge that is a slow release carb. It would be interesting to know if porridge worked similarly on me as it did you. I wish you could hear the doctors and nurses when they discuss my case because they are genuinely perplexed but delighted that I've done it. One doctor has asked if he can use my case in a future student class. I didn't think I'd done anything so momentous but I take it as a compliment. Yes I am very low carb, barring parties, barbeques, etc, where I would devour someone's arm if they sprinkled salt on it but those occasions are few and far between. I've adapted to it without realising it too. Yes this is so confusing and can look so complex especially when we sometimes have experts who don't agree with each other. I will let you know how it goes. Thanks Lamont. I appreciate the information here Nicole, I didn't know that, although at the back of mind, I did wonder if I had become more tolerant over time. It's strange because on a Saturday, as a rule, we go to my in-laws and I call it a treat day. We eat white teacakes, pork pies, sausage rolls and a bun at the end, in other words, lots of carbs. I can eat like a horse so I fill my plate. But I have noticed now that on several occasions, when we're home and usually around 11.00pm, I feel sick, I can shake, my vision goes foggy and I feel awful. I said to my husband that I can't do this because of how it feels later on. I think my body is so attuned to eating properly, that it rebels when I don't. It just shows what junk was doing to me when I ate it and I really did eat a lot of it. Your post has helped, thank you. [/QUOTE]
