Newbie in denial needs help...

I'm able to eat pineapple in a small portion, say one slice off a medium pineapple. It has a minor effect on Bg levels, depends on the portion size. I eat all sorts of fruits, except grapes and bananas. They are the only two fruits that send my Bg levels rocketing.

Only way to find out what you can and cannot eat is to test, test, test ! You may be surprised at what you can eat, especially if you have lost any weight. That has made a huge difference to my metabolism. I can even manage a bowl of cereal now with NO ill effects. I can also manage a chunk of crusty bread and lashings of butter. Bliss. :D
 
Aged 58, I saw the Dr for the first time in 7 years last year.

Diagnosed very high BP, and the fun started :

*Stop smoking - from 40/day for 40 years, then
*Bleeding gums
*pins & needles
*ulcer diagnosed
*weight increase
*cholesterol on high side
*sugar on high side
*Thursday told a blood test indicated diabetes and prescribed CL & Diabetes tablets

I'm now researching the topics.

First time I have returned to this forum since a bad experience with a moderator in July 2010.

After spending over 1 hour answering a query about high temperatures, I re-read it and tried to edit a spelling mistake.

It had vanished - within 5 minutes.

I had no copy and the moderators response was that it copied material from other sources. This was 100% incorrect. The moderator had deleted the post on a whim.

No apology was forthcoming. In fact I had 6 PM's from him trying to justify his position.

I am a forum owner myself, and that would never be acceptable to my members.

It now appears that the individual has gone.

How many other users have been lost due to this ?
