[QUOTE="marzak, post: 2082332, member: 506613"] Ok some fair points. However for me, and we are all different, I have lost 8kg since April 15th 2019 [diagnosis day] and am now able to run up to 5 miles. I have started smallish weights to build muscle and that seems to be fine. I am concerned about eating animal fat to keep my cholesterol and LDL fine. My BP is good as is my pulse now at a new resting low of 54 beats per minute [female, mid 50s]. I can't be doing everything wrong. My spikes [over 8 but reasonably rare] come from bread and fruit and don't last but I have insulin resistance so they do occur. I have started to research glycaemic index and glycaemic load of different fruit, nuts and pulses because as you say some are better than others in terms of carbohydrate and sugar content. I just don't eat anything with added sucrose or dring juices and if it needs sweetening [gooseberries for example] it gets to sit in coconut drink with oats over night in a Bircher's muesli. I haven't quite got the hang of the best diet for running and I will be aiming for much longer runs in the coming months but I will get there with fish, eggs, seeds, nuts and pulses and of course fruit and veg and the compulsory porridge/oat based muesli. Today I have given up my sulphonylurea completely and will see how well I manage. I think the fat to protein balance in meat is very important for satiation [ie: less fat more protein] but hard for me to judge as I don't eat it! We all start from different places and have different lives and stresses. [LEFT][FONT=Open Sans][COLOR=rgb(44, 44, 44)]Good luck to all with their chosen paths[/COLOR][/FONT][/LEFT] [/QUOTE]
