[QUOTE="AloeSvea, post: 1908745, member: 150927"] [FONT=Arial]Yes I read that with interest :). Absolutely! I love bacon and eggs - but not enough for that alone for 8 weeks! I have experimented a bit with a Meat, Eggs, and Dairy only diet, but I missed the greens too much. And I felt way too sad about having to skip zucchini and broccoli, and berries, as well as all that other carby stuff! But I am not adverse to considering it in the future. (I tend to take a while to get used to new regimes. Change is hard!) I have found that eggs are a fantastic way to have a good morning or afternoon. Especially as I am not supplementing with a multi vitamin and mineral, so want to make sure I get my nutrients. Eggs really are a wonder food, imho. Unusually filling. I have got into a food routine now that suits me well, which is to get through the morning without eating at all, and having as small an amount of whipped cream in my first coffee, as my cal allowance dictates. Because my FBG is unusually good, the rise I usually have without food in the morning is much abated, where it will only rise .2 or something ridiculous like that while underfeeding. Then I have what is a pretty decent lunch. Which my empty tummy is telling me is coming up in an hour! (and I left out the cream in my coffee so I could have a better Sunday lunch with my partner today.) Thumbs up and all the power to you Pipp for searching for your own solution! I really do understand how hard and how much brow beating goes into this path. (me doing this again follows many years talking about it and groaning about it with my partner, and my family. And reading in here.) Reading about the likes of us really brings it home to me how individual we all are, even with the same general disease/dysfunction (re type two IR based diabetes). My belief is treatments for T2D will be much more individualised in the future, as we understand the complexity of T2 more and more. This is my hope at least.[/FONT] [/QUOTE]
