First let me start by giving you a little background info on me. I was first diagnosed w/diabetes in April of this year. I was put on Byetta, and have lost 54 pounds since April. Since April my bs has never gone above 200, I put myself on a whole grain diet and eat only chicken breast, turkey or fish with the occasional homemade french fries and hamburgers once a month. I also exercise everyday for 45 minutes which I’ve been doing for the last 2 months. Now here is my problem, for the last week or so I’ve been having trouble keeping my bs above 100 2 hours after I eat. According to my diabetes educator I need to eat more carbs but I’m afraid that if I do that my weight loss will suffer and if I don’t eat enough that’s bad too. If I do eat more carbs (which for me is hard as everything is very filling) what will it do to my weight loss? As a diabetic can not eating enough carbs hurt my weight loss? I’d like to lose about 50 more pounds if I can.
Listen Mamasmurf-I am eating a well balanced diet!!!! I eat fruit, vegetables, whole grains, and poultry and fish-so where would the eating disorder be then?! I’m actually eating better now than I was before I was diagnosed!!! I would never do anything to put my health in jeopardy!!!! I would rather be a little overweight and in perfect health than be thin and sick. I am not starving myself!!!! I’m eating the same amount of carbs I always have since I was diagnosed now all of a sudden it’s not enough and that’s what has me worried. You sound awefully judgemental to me and I don’t appreciate it!
Where did you get the idea I wasn’t eating carbs??? I had a high carb dinner last night and still wasn’t enough carbs for me. I had to have some whole grain crackers and a cookie to bring my blood sugar up so don’t tell I’m not dieting smart. By the way I don’t call the way I eat dieting I say I’ve changed my lifestyle which way too many diabetics don’t do.
Three steps that have really helped me are dieting, exercising, and the correct weight loss supplement for losing weight. Focus on those three things and you will lose weight considerably. I exercise 30 mins a day along with taking Proactol, a natural weight loss supplement that I saved money on at theweightlossplace.com
Good luck and stay focused = )
