[QUOTE="Trevor vP, post: 2435681, member: 518145"] If the subway Salad you talking about is the bread with salad in that will do your weight and your blood glucose no good. Try start off simple A. extra weight not great for Diabetics - Weight comes from Calories we eat vs the amount of energy we use, almost impossible to reduce weight with exercise alone unless you doing a lot without taking a calories reduction B. Blood Glucose - Carbohydrates in your food - Bread/Rice/Potatoes/Pasta/Sweets/Cake/ Enough Fruit Try download Carbs & Calc app it is your friend for portion size and how many calories and how many Carbs it is not a diet it is a way to understand the impacts for you to own. You sound like you have access to good quality food try enjoy making some of your own until you have a good understanding of The Carbs and the Calories . A lot of people see weight benefits from managing Carbs why, it's harder to eat lots of Calories on low Carbs as not a easy quick slice of bread or a litre of orange juice, the lower carbs helps the body cope with Insulin resistance so you actually do not feel as hungry as the energy actually getting into the body. The lows you talk about might be because you putting yourself through such big swings in , For example a T1 on insulin having a hypo we start with 4 x Jelly Baby's (20grams carb) and wait for 10-15mins then if level settle we will having something slow acting like one oat biscuit. What you doing drinking a litre of juice you swinging the body all over the place and your pancreas is trying to drop insulin to fix the massive glucose you put in as you say you a T2 so you pancreas working but your body is resisting the insulin. Let us know how it is going and good luck [/QUOTE]
