[QUOTE="Resurgam, post: 2179819, member: 355878"] You really will be able to eat normally again - yes, it will be a constant balancing act, but it can be done. You'll get a lot of great advice and encouragement on this forum. I'm a type two and want to avoid medication - I will not eat lunch again - not eat many of the foods which are thought of as normal eating - but I eat to live. If I discovered that I had to subsist on frogspawn in order to survive - sorry frogs. Happily, I can eat meals which are pleasant, they just have low levels of carbohydrate. My first meal of the day has around 10gm of carb. I eat a second meal in the evening - about 25gm of carbs with that one. This is, of course the same thing as that tale of someone being angry at having no shoes, until they met someone who had no feet - though of course, my feet are not going to suffer the effects of poor glucose control. I started off the process of gaining control with a notebook and a set of accurate kitchen scales, plus a glucose tester.You of course have the secret super power of insulin. [/QUOTE]
