Hi Carole, Losing more weight should not cause you to get lows. Are you still on meds? If so, you probably need to eat more often. That is what I had to do for about 2 months before I discontinued my meds. This is the first time I've gotten a low since I've been off meds, and it was my fault. I should have eaten before we left the house. Hugs Eunice Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I find that scarey Hi Carole, I really don't think you will have any problems even if you lose more weight. This is what my schedule is like. Before breakfast, I'll have a couple cups of coffee with fat-free milk. Around 10:30-11:00, I'll have breakfast and coffee with breakfast. Lunch is between 2:30 and 3:30. Sometimes I may have a small snack between breakfast and lunch. Sometimes a snack around 5:00-5:30. Dinner between 7:30-8:30. I drink lots of hot green or herbal tea throughout the day and evening.

Guest guest Posted January 2, 2003 Report Share Posted January 2, 2003 Hi Eunice - no meds so far, just diet and exercise. Right now, I don't have to worry about whether I eat or not as usually I am higher than I want to be. It actually sounds negative to lose more weight and then have to worry about lows. I find that scarey.

Guest guest Posted January 2, 2003 Report Share Posted January 2, 2003 Thanks for the info, Eunice. Thinking about it, my morning coffee with Splenda and Half and Half sends my BGs up quite a bit but for a short period of time. I don't eat regular meals and don't want to have to. I do try and eat a hardy meal about 10:30-11am which usually holds me to dinner. Guess I am just a worry wart. Thanks again Carole Re: to Eunice from Carole In a message dated 1/1/2003 9:42:31 PM Eastern Standard Time, onelvlady@... writes: > It actually sounds negative to lose more weight and then have to worry about > lows.
