[QUOTE="JoKalsbeek, post: 1935750, member: 401801"] You're doing really well, though chapati's and fruit are high in carbs... (And you probably know pizza is too). As practically all carbs turn to glucose once ingested, you might want to dial that down a bit and see what it does for your levels. Do you have a meter? If so, check before a meal and 2 hours after first bite. If you go up more than 2 mmol/l that meal contained more carbs (and thus, sugar) than you could process back out again. Also, you eat rather often in a day, which means your pancreas never really gets a break. Maybe eat more at less moments? If you eat bigger meals, with more fat, you wouldn't need to eat so often. As [USER=277199]@kokhongw[/USER] noted, there's no meat in your diet, and from what I can see, over all you eat rather little and practically no fat... And if you don't want to become malnourished, vitamin and mineral deficient and want to actually feel full throughout the day, you do have to up the fats some. (If you lower carbs, you have to up the other 2 macro-nutrients; fat and proteine) Avocado's and cheese, are those okay? Eggs? If you're a vegetarian, you might want to check dietdoctor.com as they do have meal plans for vegans and vegetarians too. That should get your HbA1c down further. I'm not a medical professional, but, you know... It might help. Good luck! Jo [/QUOTE]
