[QUOTE="Fndwheelie, post: 2135916, member: 447317"] 4.7 this morning. Pretty happy with that as I went to the doctors yesterday and saw the diabetic nurse due to spending all night and half the day dropping into hypo territory. I wanted reassurance that now I’m not on insulin the hypos weren’t really something to worry about, or that there was something else going on. My thoughts were maybe I’ve been producing more insulin than needed due to insulin resistance and the diet had stopped the insulin resistance but my body hadn’t dropped the insulin production yet. She said “you’ve cut out too much sugar. Our bodies still need some sugar every day, just as a diabetic you were eating too much. You can’t cut out all sugar.” So feeling quite deflated I ended up having fish and chips from the chippy. No beading pics today as I’m just beading my way through 20 brown triangles at the minute, 2 done 18 to go. [/QUOTE]
