I > think this must have more to do with weight loss than diabetes unless your doctor thinks your kidneys are stressed as mine and my dad's do. One ounce at a time is all my dad is supposed to have because there were proteins showing up in his urine. Since my kidneys are showing signs of being stressed, I also try to keep meat or cheese to one ounce per meal -- but I'm eating 5 to 6 small meals a day, and that helps a lot. I eat about every 2 to 3 hours, so small amounts actually feel good to me. See what we mean, Terri? YMMV. (g) Test a lot, and call the professionals who told you to do the one ounce thing and find out why they told you that -- then you will know if there are any other health issues you should consider.

Guest guest Posted August 5, 2002 Report Share Posted August 5, 2002 I've been put on a max of 50 grams of carbo a meal and a little more 1,200 calories a day. I bought a carb book but it has only confused me more,when it comes to meat(beef mostly) what is better?? Are grilled hamburgers o.k.??? I just seemed so depressing going to the grocery store today,it seems so many more no's the yes's out there. Terri, Welcome to the list :-) Fifty grams of carbs a meal is a lot! That gives you a lot of leeway, but can your body handle that many carbs? Mine can't :-( If I have the grilled hamburgers, I don't eat the bun. I eat only one piece of bread a day, and I'm happy to be able to eat that. Yet, I have lots of variety in my meals. Don't be depressed... you'll get the hang of it :-) Are you testing your blood sugar? You need to do that to find out if 50 carbs a meal is the right amount for you or too many? For many of us on this list, that's too many. Ask your questions, and we'll try to answer :-) You're not alone. Sandy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted November 1, 2002 Report Share Posted November 1, 2002 Dear Annette, Your symptoms - effortless weight loss (we call it " My Diet Suddenly Worked! " ), excessive thirst, excessive urination, and tiredness, sound just like ketoacidosis. That's not good. What are your two-hour post-meal glucose readings? What was your most recent HbA1c reading? You report eating no-sugar, but " loads of fruit. " Many fruits are filled with fructose, which is another form of sugar. I know a guy who is having his toes lopped off in his doctor's office without anesthesia because his neuropathy is so severe, and yet he promotes a high-fruit diet. Fruit seduces diabetics because it is another sweet. There are safe alternatives for the vitamins and fiber fruit contains, which will not do such a whammy on us diabetics.

Guest guest Posted January 20, 2003 Report Share Posted January 20, 2003 Hi , I am new to PLS also and new to the group. It has only been a couple of weeks and found this site to be a wealth of information and love. Everyone is so willing to help in any way they can. They are so supportive. I have found answers to lots of questions, that maybe I forgot to ask the doctor or was too embarrased. Keep us posted.

Guest guest Posted January 20, 2003 Report Share Posted January 20, 2003 We're not all that well-adjusted and just brimming with good advice, some of us are grumpy in general and at PLS in specific. But if they let people like me hang out here, I'm sure all y'all will be more than welcome. >Hi , > >I am new to PLS also and new to the group.
