Although having been Diabetic for some 10 yrs. I have only recently tried to get to grips with it and give myself a chance of a better, longer life!!

I am failing miserably!!

Loads of people have always answered my questions and given advice yet when implemented it seems not to make much difference.

Following advice from this Forum I decided to go Low Carb', the 1st. week was amazing with daytime BG levels below 5 consistently.

This soon tailed off and my levels are all over the place now.

Please bare wirh me and look at todays situation.

At bedtime last night 4.2; On waking 9.8; 120mg Gliclizide @ 0700; 0800 BG 10.6; Breakfast 4xthin ham & 1thin cheese 1000mg Metformin; 1000 BG 10.8; 1300 BG 7.9; Lunch 4 x bacon, mushrooms & 2 eggs & 1000mg Metformin; 1415 BG 9.4; 1545 BG 9.4.

With all the medication I am taking I would have expected to see some drastic changes in my BG levels.

Can someone please help I am getting very worried.

Looking at what you are eating where are the fruits and veggies? :? :shock:

Your diet seems to be based mainly on proteins so that could be your problem.
