[QUOTE="Melgar, post: 2710484, member: 520626"] If you boil it down to the basics [USER=590018]@sailorDel[/USER]. Your body cannot cope with the carbs you are consuming. That’s it in a nutshell. Yes it sucks. Those sweet delicacies we love, don’t love us. Flour, whether it’s wheat flour, rice flour or whatever are high in carbs, that’s not even counting the sugars. It sounds complicated, but really it’s all about the carbs. The glucose meter you bought from Amazon is just that, a meter that measures your blood glucose. You test your blood on the first bite and test it again two hours after.If there’s not much difference between the two readings you are golden. All you are looking to do is keep your blood sugars below the Prediabetes range. There are lots of low carb recipe books out there with some great recipes. You will get a handle on it, it’s just a shock and it’s all new to you. :) [/QUOTE]
