[QUOTE="sally and james, post: 1749711, member: 93504"] There is no need for you to get worse, or to require insulin, but you will have to cut out the bread, pasta and rice. These are all complex carbs, which break down into sugar as soon as you eat them. Do you have a blood glucose meter? Very important to have one at this stage so that you can test yourself immediately before and then two hours after meals to see how different foods affect you. I expect any type of bread would give you a nasty rise. Aim for a rise of 2mmol/L or less. I wonder if you have received the Newby info? I'll tag [USER=25759]@daisy1[/USER] , who will post it on this thread for you. Sally [/QUOTE]
