[QUOTE="Cocosilk, post: 2030362, member: 501623"] I think the very fact that we already had gestational diabetes shows that we have enough insulin resistance to lead to problems in the future. Just assume that you will have and really focus on low carb to be on the safe side. Many believe any blood sugar spike over 7.8 mmol is slowly doing our bodies damage, so if I see, 8s, 9s and 10s (which I have a few times this past few weeks since diagnosis), it worries me because I often can't get the 2 hour reading back below my target of 6.7 mmol. So those spikes do matter I think. And the only way to fix it is not to eat the carbs that are doing it to you. I've just been listening today to Ivor Cummings talking about seed oils and how they affect us as well. Fascinating stuff. I feel so fortunate to live at a time when this information is available to us so we don't just have to wait for a doctor to tell us in a number of years that we already have T2.
