[QUOTE="hanadr, post: 31991, member: 8110"] I'm another low carber and would advocate it to anyone. I am now almost carb free, with some fruit. My BG is around 4.5 - 5.1 at any time average 5.1 and I've lost weight and feel well. It was hard to begin with, but I got down gradually and now it's just part of my lifestyle. I think it's particularly helpful to type 2 diabetics. Something I have been toying with, but it' hard with limited test strips, is " eating to the meter" . In other words, checking BG before eating and adjusting the meal to that reading. In my case over 5 means NO visible carbs, not even an apple. Below 4 means a low carb crispbread would be OK. I've become an expert in carb spotting. I am a good cook and prepare most of our food from scratch and have found low carb variants on many family favourites. [/QUOTE]
