When you say your results are consistent no matter what you eat, what would your reading be do you think if you ate a bag of chips and a big plate of pasta, followed by a big slice of pie and scoops of ice cream for dessert, three times a day? Because if your readings stay in the “normal non diabetic person” range then yes you’ve reversed your disease. But if they go high until all the sugar is out of your system then no, you’re managing your disease (but AMAZINGLY well) but you haven’t reversed it.
Hi Adm_Mad,
My body is functioning correctly now because I am treating it correctly and yes I know I am cured/normal,better whatever label you or anyone calls it, , I really was not treating my body well in the past, for a very long time and to be honest it held out well for me, for it to only fail with high glucose readings, I was very bad to it!!, I took it for granted that it would look after me no matter what I did to it.
When I say consistent readings its generally with anything, chocolate shreddies, coco pops, home made chips, full plates of rice, macaroni cheese anything as long as it is based on healthy living calories/portion/weigh control. If I eat chips at home I weigh 200g thats approx 400 calories so be careful I cant have much else with it, salad yep.. My readings are rarely above 6.0 when I wake & 2 hours after food, last night I forgot I ate 1/2 chocolate cereal thing 1 hour after my dinner but still was only 6.0.
I have had 3 or 4 very naughty days in terms of junk stodge foods over the last 17 weeks, but some junk food I really really do love and one of my favourite is chippy chips with loads of salt and vinegar when Im out and about, I think of them so often its disturbing
and I love sugared donuts soooo much, I think I love food full stop really, but I know that loving these things and eating them uncontrollably is the same as any addiction, drink, drugs food all do damage in some shape or other, the term moderation is correct even if it is a bit boring, I will no doubt have my whats it called let my hair down days in the future, I just will not do it every day as i did before!
To answer your main question,
"what would your reading be do you think if you ate a bag of chips and a big plate of pasta, followed by a big slice of pie and scoops of ice cream for dessert, three times a day?"
My answer to that would be, it would be the same as anyone's reading diabetic or non diabetic, non diabetics have high readings too, about 8 weeks ago my wife and I ate a large chinese takeaway in the car, we went too Newcastle to buy a dishwasher and it had been a long and fairly stressful day, (satnav kept taking us to a closed road), with dieting and being low calorie it was very hard, so this night on the way home we stopped in hexham and I got sweet and sour chicken balls in batter, large tub very sweet sauce! Large container special fried rice and a very unhealthy large size of chips. I thought I have blown my good diet and blood sugar issues, **** i thought, I ate it sooo fast all of it, no way will my body be able to deal with this, I took note of the time for the dreaded result, drove home and exactly 2 hours later my reading was 8.7 but my wifes reading was 9.6 thats when I knew my body had performed as it should, I hope that answers your question.
