<snipped>
@Pasha
It will. Many thanks for taking the time.
I think you start the day better than I do, lunch again more than I do... my evening meal is probably heavier in protein (meat).. might be re-configuring mealtime.

Are you still taking Metformin, Maxwell?5.2 yesterday morning and 5.0 this morning. Not too bad considering I am away and eating hotel food so haven't got my normal choices.
Maxwell
What worries me is that good advice is given about avoiding carbs like bread etc, but hey you are doing it to yourself ,bs's over 5.5 for any period will have detrimental resultsYep the lot went down....but wont be repeating....trial and error certainly tasted good!
But it did take 4 hours to get BS back down..../slaps wrist and learns
Hola
Well looks like everybody is full of the joys of spring today - long may it last.
Was expecting a higher reading today as steak supper and huge amount of acceptable veg and salads (butter fried garlic mushrooms), tomato onion feta basil vinegar olive oil salad, sauerkraut, aspagus, huge green salad, a bucket load of green goddess sauce and an extremely large glass of red wine in my special 'I'm only having 1 glass of wine' glass. Anyhow haven't had a glass of vino for a month and it's the last one til April 12. Very enjoyable it was to but sent me nuts (raided the nut store walnuts, almonds and shared to last bit of peanut butter with the dog).
Or to cut a long story short more carbs than I've had for a while but lower reading. 4.5 on the Richter scale. That's about as low as I want to go.
So I have a problem, don't get me wrong it is a nice problem to have but I am looking for some advice.....
Aim keep bloods at that level but not go any lower or above 20g of carbs and not reduce exercise regime and still continue to loose weight. All suggestions greatfully received.
Cheers
I'm not ignoring advice neither am I attempting to go carb free.What worries me is that good advice is given about avoiding carbs like bread etc, but hey you are doing it to yourself ,bs's over 5.5 for any period will have detrimental results
Happy for you keep it up:I'm not ignoring advice neither am I attempting to go carb free.
I'm aiming to take it below 5.5 even though GP is happy at under 7
Considering I started the week at 13.2 on waking I'm happy with the progress made so far...6.1 pre lunch and 6.9 two hours after
At this rate I will need sugar supplements by next weekend!
Clive I'm a little concerned that you may be giving the impression that a BS of 5.5 is detrimental when it is, in fact, within the non-diabetic range and I feel that it may unnecessarily worry people who are new and coming to terms with Diabetes. Many on here are already stressed re what they can and cannot eat, information overload etc and telling them that, even if they do get down to normal levels, it may still be harmful may stress them further for no reason.What worries me is that good advice is given about avoiding carbs like bread etc, but hey you are doing it to yourself ,bs's over 5.5 for any period will have detrimental results
I've got several diff ones tho am sure most of you will have had peanut butter? Have got cashew nb, pistachio nb, hazelnut b wth cinnamon and hazelnut b wth chocolate......not to be confused wth choc hazelnut spread.... Hth....get them from seller on eBay'Scuse me for being ignorant but what is nut butter?
Yes, forgot abt the almond butterNut butter... almond butter; peanut butter; hazelnut butter... lush... but full of calories mind...
Feel for you, lack.of sleep is awful....6.0 a little high for me, but have had little sleep the last 2 days so hopefully things will get in line once I can get more than 2 hours sleep per night.
Have a beautiful day everyone.
