[QUOTE="ziggy_w, post: 2177074, member: 323454"] Wow, this is quite a reduction. Really well done. It definitely seems to be working for you. In terms of fruit, most of us seem to do best on berries, such as raspberries, strawberries and blackberries. The veggies also sound perfectly fine. Have you considered having the vegetables whole? Juicing gets rid of the fiber, and the fiber definitely helps with the impact on blood sugar levels. After diagnosis, I read a lot of research on foods suitable for diabetes. For me, the low carb option seemed to be the most promising and I cut out all higher carb foods, such as bread, pastries, pasta, rice, potatoes, sugar and most fruit (especially tropical fruit). Was probably a bit higher carb then compared to today. Now, I am on less than 25g of carbs per day. I definitely remember mourning having to change my way of eating and never having most of my old favorites ever again. Today, I really don't miss carbs anymore. After so many years, my palate has changed. Keeping my fingers crossed that you've got this beat in no time. Good luck on your journey and keep us updated. [/QUOTE]
