...and it feels so good!
Over the past couple of weeks, I started going to the gym and changed to the low-carb diet. Since then, I've had heavenly BG readings and I feel fabulous.
Imagine, for 16 years I was told to eat plenty of potatoes, rice, blah blah, only to discover they make me spike horribly. I know I am partially responsible for this in that I took every single word of the dietitian as law. I did not realise that the information is generic. Better late than dead from complications though eh?!
Anyway, I told (ranted at) my doctor today about the changes I have made, showed her my readings from the past fortnight and she was totally gob-smacked. In just 2 weeks my morning reading has gone from 17.2 to 5.5. On asking where I got my information from, I told her about this website and she wrote it down. She then asked if I wanted to see a dietitian....I was like :shock: but we laughed it off.
I love love love this site and thank God I came across it. Big thanks to you all.
