[QUOTE="Patch, post: 219416, member: 13526"] I've cheated a couple of times (incl. once this weekend - again... :oops:) and have noticed that my post meal (1hr) spikes are now [i]much[/i] lower than they used to be. This is good. I've also noticed that my BG returns to it's pre-meal level within 2 - 3hrs of eating. This is also, good. The shakes I'm using have 20g of carbs in each serving. My post shake BG's are less than they'd be if I'd eaten a normal meal w/20g carbs in it. (This needs further research - but not until I've lost a bit more weight!) Is it permanent? Who knows. At least I now know that: 1) I CAN (and I never thought I would be able to) manage on 3 shakes a day for an extened time - no food. 2) My fasting BG is reduced significantly after 2 weeks on this regime. 3) I've been able to STOP oral medication an insulin (I'm T2). This is just another tool/weapon I've got at my disposal now. You can never have enough of them! [/QUOTE]
