[QUOTE="Lamont D, post: 2314107, member: 85785"] Hi again, It does seem that you are going to plan your next few weeks low carb! Your body will still crave the carbs for a while, so take it easy on yourself. Make sure you drink plenty of water and add salt at some time because the sudden drop in salt can have an effect. Be patient and hopefully you will discover like I did, quite a change in my wellbeing at not going hyper then hypo all the time. I know it will be difficult but don't eat too much, eating just for eating sake because it is lunchtime is unnecessary and with the extra fats, you should become more satiated, this will help with constant bombardment of food. Potatoes are for me the biggest spikes of all the carbs, it is mostly starch and water, I haven't had one for about ten years. Starchy vegetables are a worry, because you don't know what will spike you. The aim is to maintain normal blood glucose levels at all times, this is the only treatment that works for me and other hypoglycaemic conditions. If you don't have a hyper, you don't have a hypo. Staying in normal levels will help with your health. I have been in constant contact with my GP, why isn't your surgery seeing patients? Or having at least phone appointments? Testing is important, because you can get a snapshot of how your bloods are coping with food, I have kept a diary since 2012 and I still use testing to make sure I'm okay, my fasting or because I have had a change in my anxiety meds, to see why I feel awful or not, whether it's my blood levels going up if my stress level is bad enough to push it out of normal levels. Your fasting levels can be used as a norm to see if you are going diabetic. You shouldn't because of low carb, but it is important to know. Keep safe [/QUOTE]
