[QUOTE="Eurobuff, post: 845899, member: 113391"] Thanks everyone. I really appreciate it. With regards to the bread/carbs, I just used that as an example. I am eating about 50g carbs per day, which is probably why my hba1c is what it is. I lost the weight when I reduced my carbs (in my non-diabetic days I was eating about 200grams per day). I've worked out that I am using about 1600 calories per day. My blood pressure is generally 120's over 80's with my pulse rate being between 80-85. I'm guilty of not exercising like I should. I usually start off well and then get bored after a week, and then give up, and start again a few weeks later. I had a pretty active job (well lots of walking/ walking fast & up & downstairs), but I was made redundant and my new job, is a lot of sitting around, chained to a computer (not literally of course). I think I need to find some effective exercise that I can do from home, if that's possible, as there's no gyms near me, and if I went jogging I'd probably get mugged! My hba1C is getting checked every 6 months. I tend to use Boot's scales to get weighed when I'm out shopping. My waist is 32 inches. 2hrs after I've eaten my BG is somewhere between 5.6-6.6, but there is an odd rogue reading hear and there of 7.2, 7.3, although last week I did have a reading of 8.0 2 1/4hrs after eating, which I can't explain, as I hadn't ate anything different, although earlier on in the day I felt really ill (not diabetes related) and was in severe pain in my back and had taken high dose painkillers, so I don't know if that was a coincidence or not? In reference to Professor Taylor's statement about BG being under 8 - 1hour after eating, mine usually are (apart from last week), so I'm not sure if by his calculations he would class me as non diabetic? At the moment I'm still losing weight, but slowly and steadily, so if the rate at which you lose weight isn't important I might just see if my BG improves even further, keeping on the low carb diet.
