- having to think about everything I eat
11 months into being a type 2 diabetic, and so far so nearly good. I'm still controlling it with diet and excercise, and testing 2 -4 times a day. Just a wee word of warning to some people who think that they have beaten it, you haven't. Thats the way I felt coming up to Xmas. my levels where never over 7 and usually about 5.5 -6.5 morning noon and night, and after the gym usually down to about 4.7. So I let myself go over Xmas, and I'm sort of paying for it now. My day time levels and after most meals isn't to bad, just the odd spike, but my pre breakfast level, Im struggling to keep it below 7.
But what I have noticed, when I do treat myself, the best thing I can eat is KFC. I get a 3 piece variety meal which contains, 2 chicken wings, 1 chiken strip, 3 pieces of chicken 1 chip and a diet coke. Ive been treating myself to one of these once a week since Xmas, and 2 hours later my BG levels, have never been over 6.5 :? I know the fat content isnt great, but i'm working out 3-4 times a week and averaging about 1-2 pounds weight lose per week. Has anyone else noticed these results after eating KFC
