[QUOTE="Red_river_, post: 1635154, member: 448756"] Hi Hiitsme, thank you for your kind words. I am actually surprised with myself how good I've been. I find cutting carb is not as bad after all. I am on an all inclusive holiday so plenty of choices for food. For days now I have no carb for breakfast, very little for lunch and a handful of hard carb ( rice, potato or pasta) for dinner. I haven't touched anything sweet even though the temptation is always there. Drinks are strictly iced tea, iced coffee or infused water. Taking a sugar coated pill scares me too, I don't see the point of it. I think I am doing much more than what my nurse and my Gp advised. Even family say I don't need to be this careful as my level is not high, no need for totally cutting sugar out.. , but I am too scared not to do so. Of course it's still very early days, one month tomorrow since I was diagnosed, I just hope that I will be able to discipline myself like I do now. [/QUOTE]
