Guest guest Posted March 14, 1999 Report Share Posted March 14, 1999 Do you think the stress from the weather changes might be affecting the sugar levels rather than just the weather? I am prone to sinus headaches when the weather changes. Last week with our big snowfall I missed exercise at the Center and had a headache and a yowling cat following me around as well. Think I mentioned that instead of the exercise VCR I intended to play, I played an old 'Virtual Catnip' VCR for the cat instead. It worked so well, I had to play it twice for her. This morning she pestered me to play it again. I've created a monster but at least a quiet one for awhile. T'ai Chi exercise seems to lower my bg as well as relax me.

Guest guest Posted March 15, 1999 Report Share Posted March 15, 1999 I always find my bg's going up in winter...i think it's cause i swim so much in the summer, and in winter i don't cause it's too dang cold!! I try to do something in winter that would exchange for the swimming, but it's hard, being so cold and all. Walking is ok, but not nearly as energetic.

Guest guest Posted September 5, 1999 Report Share Posted September 5, 1999 Shellé, Sounds like you are not too impaired. I think your choice of dinner was not a wise one for a diabetic. Any starch; wheat, cereal, pasta turns directly to blood sugar, and 192 is rather high. sounds like you recovered nicely. Perhaps you merely need to reduce the starches in your diet. Our objective is at least to stay under 126 as an average sugar, I think avoiding the big peaks is the first logical step, Regards, sam Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted September 7, 1999 Report Share Posted September 7, 1999 Sure it's possible. After all, you sleep for about 8 hours. Your body does eventually use up that glucose. Apparently you don't suffer from the dreaded Dawn Syndrome If you at at 7 and your bg's were still that high at bed time I would look at what you are eating. Pasta always sent my bg's through the roof and they stayed up a long time like that. I have found eating low carb took care of that problem. Now that I follow Atkins my bg's run 79 - 115 or so... I love low carb! Meenie Sugar Levels > > >Question: Is possible to have your sugar level at 192 before you go >to bed, and at 97 in the morning?

I eat pasta regularly, and as long as I stick to a proper portion, it does not cause me any large peaks. Remember, with this disease, YMMV is the keyword. We diabetics are like snowflakes, each of us is different. The peak may have been caused by something she ate earlier in the day, or even the day before. I have discovered that if I eat something I shouldn't, or binge, that the high does not manifest itself in me for nearly 24 hours. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted September 11, 1999 Report Share Posted September 11, 1999 , since I am diet controlled, it would not work for me. when you use insulin you must match the meal in size and timing with insulin, but any excess calories you either burn off or wear. I cannot see the attraction of a tasteless concentration of sugars, compared to the many other choices we have. It is cheap and in every packaged meal, suitable ones for diabetics are few and far between. we are our own caretakers, Be Well, Sam Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted September 12, 1999 Report Share Posted September 12, 1999 Hi : I am on an 1800 calorie diet provided to me by Kaiser, my HMO. It calls for one ounce of protien for breakfast, two for lunch and three for dinner. Also calls for three carbohydrate servings at each meal and one for a bedtime snack, three servings of fruit per day, one at each meal and two servings of milk. I try to eat all of the above every day and add lots of salads and green, non-starchy vegitables. I have been on this diet since March. I am also walking every day, sometimes twice per day along with working part time. I have lost 45 pounds so far, am now off blood pressure medication, off cholesterol medication and have my blood sugar under control. Last month my Hba1c was 5.3. I think that you should follow the instructions of your diatitian and, only if you don't start losing weight should you reduce your intake of foods. Remember, to be healthy, your body needs certain nutrients. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted September 12, 1999 Report Share Posted September 12, 1999 B, suggestion. Demand Feeding for Type 2 Diabetes I wanted to keep my sugars even, and found meals gave me highs and lows. Rather than experience this, I decided to use carbos through my waking time on an as needed basis. I found that when I got my portions of wheat low enough, there was little to eat. I gave up all wheat products. I use fruit in small amounts, like half an orange, or half a dish of fruit. I found the fiber and pectin helped regularity. I had a salad with some meat and cheese at noon, instead of dressing. I have a dinner with steamed vegetable, meat and potato, or half a yam. I can now reach 105 and hour after dinner. My last glycated hemoglobin was 5.3%. My morning sugars run 95. I am on a no added fat regimen, losing weight when I don't have a bit of chocolate or nuts. I found by not stressing my system with loads of food, my system has begun to store some insulin, and some sugar to help control. I have added a small amount of active bacillus yogurt with my fruit, and potato. It has reduced gas and smell. It provides a source of digestible calcium. Breakfast an orange. Mid morning half a small dish of fruit, noon salad, 1:30 pm the other 1/2 dish of fruit. 3pm half dish, 5 dinner as above, for the evening 3 more fruit and yogurt servings. I expect this is a little severe, once you have the idea of small feedings as needed do our own thing. I can hardly believe the amount and type of food some eat.

Guest guest Posted September 12, 1999 Report Share Posted September 12, 1999 Need information -- new to this. My diet is 1400 calories and for breakfast I am allowed 2 carbs, 1 fruit, 1 meat and 1 fat. Dietitian said the way meals are planned is for keeping bs level. What if I take away fruit from this breakfast meal? Will that make sugar lower or do I need to eat everything on my plan? Friend told me I should eat everything and I will lose weight and it will be ok. I am to try to control with diet and exercise, no meds as of present. I need to lose about 60 pounds -- dr. said I was becoming insulin resistant and he thinks weight loss and this diet will be what I need. Any thoughts out there? I just love this list and have learned a lot so far. Thanks for any help.

Guest guest Posted September 12, 1999 Report Share Posted September 12, 1999 Hi , The key is experiment. But you have to do so in a controlled way in order to glean any meaningful information from it. First - how long have you been following the plan the dietician gave you? I would say try it for a month. Check your blood sugars frequently and see how they are affected by what you are eating. (ie: take blood sugar, then have your breakfast. check again at 1 hr, and again at 2 hr - yes thats a lot of sticks but once you find a consistant level with these foods you won't need to do is so often) Do this around different meals and different foods. Next decide if you are happy with your foods and can stick with it. If you are, and if it is controlling your bg's well and you are losing weight then go with that. I lost weight on a low fat plan but couldn't stick with it. I had terrible cravings all the time and it was a constant fight. I finally researched other ways and decided to try Atkins which has controlled my bgs perfectly AND made me into a sane person again, lol. We are all different and this is very much a ymmv type thing (Your Mileage May Differ). There are several good options available, go with what works for YOU.

Guest guest Posted September 20, 1999 Report Share Posted September 20, 1999 Your Mileage May Vary. Sorry for the late reply. Got a new job, been working 45-50 hours a week, plus playing chauffeur for my neighbor (in addition to having an upper respiratory infection!) . I got very behind in my email.
