[QUOTE="ianf0ster, post: 2138125, member: 506169"] Hi Tankie, I am so pleased to hear that you have made progress in stabilising your Blood Glucose levels. I too have boiled eggs for breakfast (2 of them). Before I found this forum I used to eat porridge and even though that is much slower to turn into sugar, it still scares me when I even try 1/4 the amount I used to have (now that I can measure the effect with my meter). Unfortunately all over the world the advice from the average doctor will make a Type 2 diabetic slowly get more and more heavy and more and more sick. I am fortunate that although I had been pre-diabetic for years , bordering on diabetic, once I got the bad news I found this forum and thus found how it really should be treated. You are in a difficult position regarding your Insulin, I hope that you can at least get your doctor to advise on the correct dose to match your new diet. Too many tell patients just yo eat enough carbs so as to balance the effect of the Insulin - as though the Insulin was the problem and the carbs were the medicine! That is just crazy because for a Type 2 Diabetic, the Carbs are the problem and the medicine dose needs to match wat is needed by the diet. Good Luck, Ian [/QUOTE]
