[QUOTE="EllieM, post: 2303326, member: 372717"] I would argue that your body has a genetic susceptibility to not be able to process carbs in the quantities in the typical high carb modern diet. (probably along with 50% of the human race). Your insulin response isn't quite coping with your glycemic load, and though low carb is bringing your levels back to normal, you haven't quite got there yet. Many of the T2s on here report that their fasting hba1c is the last to normalise. As regards spikes, I believe that non diabetics can get them, but "symptoms" don't sound good and you should get your levels back to normal within 2 hours of a meal. As regards future eating habits, if you go back to the previous diet which induced your diabetes then you'll probably get the diabetes (and its associated weight gain) back, but it's possible that you'll be able to eat moderate carbs without issue, your meter will let you know what you can cope with. Everyone's a bit different, so most of your questions are on the lines of how long is a piece of string. But 51 to 40 is an awesome result. Well done. [/QUOTE]
