Really happy and such a positive result getting referred to your guy! Sounds like he is really on to something it's amazing to be in it at such an Early stage and you and Brun are beacons of light to someone who felt like their world was crashing down only four weeks agothanks so so much
Thanks Brun I'm just hoping my body behaves itselfAwww shucks @Linagirl that is a wonderful thing to say, but you know that all we do is make suggestions - and then you do all the hard work.

Not really, I changed my fats to natural animal fats and not the polyunsaturated or monounsaturated fats that is supposed to be healthy!One question @nosher did you watch your fat intake whilst losing your weight or did you guesstimate things. I'm hoping my weight will come down steadily but it's slow going xx
Sounds very similar but I'm wondering about cutting the cheese back and milk and sticking to the coconut milk and Greek yoghurt. Have been having s few stuffy heads which is usually my sinuses reacting to dairy. My mum seems to be horrified that I have to 'live like this' but I am loving eating a new way and made a fab curry for tea which I really enjoyed. If I have to go to a restaurant steak salad does me fine! Who needs carbs? I also now find the chocolate aisle makes me go yuck!!! Never ever believed I would say that x
Hi guys, had a very mild hypo today only 3.8 when I measured it, i didn't feel it come on with spins. I thought it was tiredness and my daughter noticed my speech was slow and I started acting 'that way' normal day of chicken salad, pkum, banana after work. Had to rush to parents eve so grabbed crisps, bloods no higher than 5.8 then home half hour put youngens to bed and hypo. Very mild but chicken salad wasn't bringing me out and I realised no carbs so i ate a small slice of my daughter pizza half hour later 4.1 but didn't feel better, I even started getting confused and palpitations and couldn't find any carbs and refused the sweets, due to the brain fog I'm sure, found mini chocolate buttons and had a few. It took an hour to feel better and am 5.9 and my head!!!!! My daughter (teenager) wasn't very helpful and said i don't help myself and act strange. I had to explain the brain doesn't function look it up. So i have been quite emotional. First hypo in a couple of months, surprised how much it affected me when it was so mild.
Thanks @nosher I've been so good this week too, yes guess its that little bit of rushing, I went for a walk yesterday which was great as my energy levels have really picked up, I couldn't walk fast a month ago so vitD and eating low carb really have helped. Just over did it i guess and my body getting used to it. I'll test my blood straight after the banana or plum another time to see how many points it raises me. Lol i could've just eaten fruit. Funny how the brain doesn't function. Good thing i wasn't lower. My daughter after a while handed me an easter egg and told me to go to bed. I didnt eat it lol I'll try sleep now I'm out of it, not slept well this week. Still got a headache another hour later.That's because you are beginning to become hypo aware!
Unfortunately you were rushing around, which heightened your blood levels, ate a banana and crisps!
So you panicked and that didn't help, you will learn how to deal with these things and how to relax yourself and slowly come back up with a few carbs.
No more carbs and eat low carb regularly, try and sleep later, as sleep is very good at getting back to normal.
You have to recognise the oncoming hypo by eating more regularly and try and stay away from those baddies, that are causing this!
It's been asked that by my drs before. I haven't noticed it but I've only been measuring my blood a few months and before couldn't even figure out the trigger for the symptoms. its definitely worth looking at.Sorry boys you might want to close your ears!!
Ladies do you find your symptoms Are worse during menstruation? I've found I have had to eat a bit more
Today x
I only ate the pizza as I was feeling worse and wanted the carbs, it was a small peice tho.Sounds like the things you are eating might make it worse? I wouldn't eat a banana or pizza slice even if unwell. I find meat or a small apple or some coconut oil makes me better. I am being very strict with myself at the moment though and get that you needed to get up again but if you have something that spikes you too much you will keep spiking and then dropping I think which will make you feel more poorly. I am a novice but I think that might be the problem? Sure Nosher and Brun will
Be able to help more than me x
