[QUOTE="sally and james, post: 2181168, member: 93504"] Hello Karen [USER=517509]@Kaza7[/USER] While exercise is a good thing, it's often said that you can't out run a bad diet. (Dr Aseem Malhotra states this frequently). Your diet is really not good for a type 2 diabetic. It's not just sugar, as in the stuff in the sugar bowl, that puts up your blood sugar levels, but all the hidden sugars and the starches that break down into sugars. Your list of foods includes satsumas (little sugar bombs), porridge, sandwiches, grain breads, rye crackers, breadcrumbs, new potatoes and mash, plus French stick and the odd apple. It doesn't matter how brown, wholemeal or natural the carbs appear to be, they all break down into sugars once you digest them. Sorry to be a bearer of bad news, but if you cut out all, or at least most of these foods, your blood sugar levels will drop and you may not need medication. If you are hungry and are trying to avoid weight loss, eat more fats, these have no effect on sugar levels. Sally [/QUOTE]
