Weigh the peanuts and eat them one by one from a small plate/dish after you have put the packet away in the cupboard.....well it might work for you, it does for meTime to make a new post with an update
I am now eating 250+ grams of carbs per day - unable to lose weight with this level even with stopping nuts and lots of exercise but I am not gaining.
BG levels showing a really interesting pattern now. I no longer have a spike at one hour and then drop rapidly! What happens now is that I have a modest rise to 7, if I do not overdo it with very fast acting carbs (or 8.5 with them) but then it flat tops and then comes down. I can only put this down to my pancreas/liver/brain now controlling my digestive system and stopping too much glucose from being released. There must be another hormone that has come into play that was also deficient as well. Will have to do some research.
Did 2 days of measuring every 2 hours (whilst awake) 6AM-10PM and highest I saw was 7 throughout the whole period. I ate all manner of "bad stuff" to try and break my BG levels but failed.
Anyway, interesting as this, I think it is time to reduce the carbs again so I can lose that last stone. So how do I give up these carbs and the peanuts!
I don't have a real diet. I try to eat 3 meals a day and no snacks (often fail recently) I aim for 20-25g of carbs in each meal. I don't bother about cutting fat. just have what feels good. I enjoy dishes like Bacon garlic cream and parmesan with thin strips of courgette instead of spaghetti. I only eat full fat yoghurt now, but not a lot. My meter basically told me what to eat. The NHS tells unmedicated T2s not to test. Then they cant understand why they think I am cured. It has worked for me although someone last night said dropping HbA1c too quickly was dangerous.
You taught me Donald.Snap, except I barely manage 2 meals.snap with ingredients you eat, except I have flax and chia seeds as well. I nowadays never worry about putting fat in. I actually worry about leaving it out!!
I am still not the high fat everybody mentions... Just higher fat and better health, but always a lean type 1
You taught me Donald.
I make that with courgette.Zucchini lasagne... Now have orders of this weekly for neighbours, customers and friends... Yummy!! Best ever!!!
