I've been diagnosed for a year .

I've done well on paleo ...by cutting carbs back and sugar etc however I've been chaotic food wise lately

This last week my appetite is bizarre

I get shakily hungry and nothing eases it easily..
 
Even if you were to roast a whole chicken and try to eat it all with a large salad, or half a dozen steaks and a box of mushrooms? How about a dozen eggs scrambled with a heap of cheese?
Those are all low carb options and they tend to be very filling

Hi @Ru14 , and welcome to the forum!
Are you sure you are eating enough? Have you tried counting the calories in your food to get an idea on how much you're eating?
 
Hello and welome,

That doesn't sound very nice at all. It must feel horrible.

Have you tried testing your blood sugar levels when you are feeling like this? That is what I would start with. If your levels are okay then the next thing I would consider was other things like- have you had enough water? or have you had a really stressful time? have you actually eaten enough?

If all of these things don't help maybe the answer is to go to your doctor and get some tests- it may be something not related to diabetes such as a mineral deficiency or high (or low) blood pressure.

Good luck and welcome.
 
Shakily hungry sounds to me like a hypo. Have you checked your bs level when you feel this way ?
