[QUOTE="Finzi, post: 384369, member: 56231"] @MichaelDavid - funny story about the rye bread - I read your first post about it, where you said about your hba1c of 5 and how you could never have achieved such good control if it wasn't for rye bread. So I thought, that sounds good, I like rye bread, I'd better buy some. So I dutifully bought some yesterday and had two slices for supper last night. Disaster. Readings spiked as high as 7.8 (usual post prandial, about 5.5) and what was worse, stayed there for *hours* (at least four hours. Fell asleep after that). Then I read your post today. "Wouldn't have my good control without rye bread. I'd be having far more hypos". Ah. Right. Yes, I'd guess that rye bread is STUPENDOUSLY good at preventing hypos ;) Not so good for a tablet controlled low carbing type 2 though! Type 2 on Metformin, diagnosed Jan 2013, ultra low carber, Hba1C at diagnosis 8% (11mmol), now between 4.5 and 5.5 mmol. 20kg lost so far :) [/QUOTE]
