[QUOTE="valann, post: 2540852, member: 556353"] Hi [USER=516508]Halfhybrid[/USER], You have been given some great advise above and making those changes will pay off but it really isn't an instant thing. My levels were also in double figures when I found this forum and the low carb diet, it took a few days for my numbers to come down into single figures, so give it time. Already you are seeing it slightly lower, another bit of advise given to me is try not to worry too much as worry can put your numbers up as well, so can pain, anxiety etc. Now you've made the decision to do something about your numbers you will get there but as the saying goes "Rome wasn't built in a day" so try to be patient and take comfort in the fact it's coming down slowly. I would strongly recommend you do tell your family as they can give you support as well as us. Tell them in a gentle way that you are now diabetic but are doing something about it and you can no longer eat so many carbs, they may take it much better than you think. Try Cauliflower rice, it is much nicer than you think and actually I prefer it now and it doesn't put your BG up, as for the pasta, I'm still trying to find a low carb one myself. You will get there, just take it day by day and keep those carbs down ;) :) [/QUOTE]
