Avatar m tn We have been through the education, but I was trying to expand a little and find some interesting meals that would be healthy and delicious for the whole family.
579670 tn?1218213544 Hi, i am doing Food technology GCSE and my coursework is to design and make a range of products suitable for a diabetic that could be sold in the healthy eating section of a supermarket. Part of my research is to produce a diabetic questionnaire asking relevant questions which would help me with my coursework. Since i do not know anybody with diabetes it would be very helpful if anyone with diabetes could complete the questionnaire. Many Thanks x 1. What type of dish do you enjoy most?
Avatar f tn blood sugar reading for me when I test at different times of the day....before meals, after meals, fasting in the morning, at bedtime and other random times during the day.
Avatar f tn What do you think of this situation. I have been a T2 diabetic for 9 years. diagnosed in Colorado. Through diet and exercise I became totally controlled, BG before eating 74 to 90 and after eating , never above 180 My Dr said" If he didn't know I was a diabetic he would swear I wasn't" I moved to a different state, New Dr. He told me ( after Blood work) That I wasn't a diabetic and never had been. I argued with him , told him what my Dr in Co. had said...
Avatar f tn Since you are not a diabetic and do not have to worry about insulin control, suggest that you stay with one list that you feel comfortable with and use only that one.

Avatar f tn Hi, to be diagnosed with diabetes so early in your pregnancy actually means that the diabetes was prexisting. Maybe it was just managed with diet and exercise before. I was in the same situation with my first pregnancy. Diagnosed pretty much as soon as I know i was pregnant. I managed it with diet and exercise up until about 3 months after which I was on insulin. For this new pregnancy (I am now 2 months), I started on insulin about 2 months before I got pregnant.
Avatar m tn My dog is diabetic and will not eat the prescribed food. How long should I make it available for her to eat. She cannot have a shot unless she eats a full meal.
Avatar f tn s been stressful planning these meals around the holidays (diabetic-friendly, dairy-free, gluten-free meals are hard to come by). Thanks so much!
Avatar n tn Shoft breath, palpitation, fainting like feelings go away within a minutge or so after sitting/rersting but weakness continues the whole. Weakness is in general but particularly in leges. I am Diabetic and Hypertensive since 15 years but both are almost in coontrol with medicines althoguh Blood Sugar PP goes out of range (beyond 200 to 220 only) sometimes. Recently I have got got my heart tested with 24 hr ECG Study with Holter, Echography, ECG etc. but all o.k.
Avatar f tn t for that Idea me and hubby would be eating TV dinners for a few days lol. I will make a list of meals I can freeze. Thank you!
391686 tn?1225168008 /Taking any medications in the evenings?/What are his evening meals like? I believe he is diabetic. If that is the cause he could have diabetic neuropathy. Secondly, the GP should be referring him to a Neurologist to follow up.
Avatar n tn I doubt it because you can eat healthy meals, do exercise and loose weight. They wouldn't take that as an excuse. But I thought that you could not be in the ARMY if you have diabetes. You could have a lot of low sugars or even pass out while your training.
Avatar f tn I drink tons of water and split up my meals! Are you on insulin? Btw i was a diabetic on insulin before pregnancy. My last a1c was a 5.
Avatar f tn You should really try to get back on track and talk to your dr about it...I have been a diabetic for years and I still struggle sometimes. My sister when she had her baby is diabetic as well and didn't take care of her self...baby was over a month early and was big over 8 pounds...my sister had a lot of trouble delivering her and because she was so early she had lung trouble and spent a month in nic u.
Avatar n tn It is better to eat smaller portions spread out throughout the day, rather than eat 3 large meals. Eat healthy snacks in between your main meals. Healthy snacks are: vegetables, nuts, fruit, egg, (if you eat bananas only eat a small one). Having a healthy diet will not only help with your sugar control, but will also help you to lose weight and also may help with regard to any inflammation that you have with your arthritis.
Avatar f tn s not too likely with the numbers you list, unless you are, in fact spiking higher after your meals. It might be worth it to start checking 2 hours after some of your meals. It also helps to see how certain foods affect your blood sugar (you want to be under 140 at the 2 hour mark). If you continue to have the problem I would see your doctor because there could be another cause.
Avatar f tn " I have gone from 20 units of novolog before meals to 6 units of novolog before meals in 3 weeks." You failed to tell us your reason/s why you lowered your dose. Is it from your Addison's post "My diabetic dr. told me she wants me to start decreasing my insulin intake." "Still eating same as always." Not changing lifestyle habits - poor nutrition - only compounds matters. Why haven't you made changes?
733939 tn?1231773355 Hi I just got diagnosed type 2 diabetic this past weekend. i was started on glucophage immediately and given menus and diets to follow. even though i have these menus i am so afraid of eating now....i managed to get through the weekend pretty good and my numbers have come down...they were 330 and over the weekend i ranged from 275 to 307. How long does it take for the metformin er to take affect where you see the numbers drop followed with a diet....
Avatar f tn with my son my levels were so under control they wondered if I really was diabetic. I fail the curves very well. they should get you hooked up with a monitor to test your self at home. each Dr is different. I was told to test my fasting over night bg, before meals and two hours post meal. so its kind of like running a mini curve every day for me. this being the second time around with gd my levels are harder to control which can be normal.
Avatar n tn t think that it makes any difference whether your child eats regular meals or variable meals with snacks as long as you know how to count the carbohydrates and adjust insulin accordingly. Obviously, those who eat according to a set meal plan have their lives simplified by not having to do the math for every single meal, but some folks prefer to have the flexibility of being able to eat what they want to and adjust the insulin.
Avatar n tn To do so yourself you have to eat consistent meals, of approximately the same number of calories. If you eat in a senior center the number of calories are about the same every day. Then you have to start a period of intense testing with blood sticks. That means when you get up. Before a meal, and two hours after a meal. A lot depends on the diabetic medications you are on. There are different kinds of insulin and each requires a slightly different procedure.
Avatar m tn Help, 59 year old male, t2 diabetic since 1996, lantus 75 units at bed time, novalog as needed @ 1:4 ratio...This is not working I have spiked at over 500 and the control is gone I take my shots and have been told to take them about 1 hour before meals? EG; BG before lunch 174 two hours after is now 265 with my shots.
Avatar f tn t believe I have it, with my bs readings they seem within the norm non diabetic range... My lowest first thing in morning is 4.9 before breakfast.. Going upto 7.3 2hrs after eating breakfast... Confused!
Avatar n tn Most other readings after meals are well within normal limits and my most recent A1C was a mere 6.3 Any suggestions? This discussion is related to <a href='/posts/show/418119'>Fasting blood sugar levels high in the morning</a>.
Avatar f tn Thanks! When I first clicked Copy Meal, I must have done something wrong as I didn't get the calendar. This is great! The other question I had is whether you can add a food from the searchable list to your own food list. That way, you don't have to search the larger list each time.
