Hi guys. I thought I had a handle on my T2 diabetes, but my last appointment with a diabetic nurse has sent me spiralling!
My belief was that eating at regular intervals was the best way to go, but my diabetic nurse told me to only eat when I'm hungry. This doesn't really fit in around my work schedule, but I've been trying and it hasn't helped. I've been advised to eat a low carb, high fat diet because I can't afford to lose weight (my BMI is towards the lower end of normal) but my cholesterol is climbing. I've tried apple cider vinegar which reduces my spike after breakfast a little. I've also tried chia seeds which sent my post-breakfast spike higher than ever!
What do you guys do with regard to eating? Same time every day? When your hungry? Skipping meals? Any and all views welcomed.
Thanks in advance.
