Hello..I'm brand new here but the smile on my face just kept getting better and better as I got closer the end of this post/replys....
What I see here is an affirmation of my own experience. I see a common thread of "My blood sugars are lower - my lab tests are so good the doctor is talking about taking me off meds - i feel great.
There is a book that I automatically recommend to all diabetics I meet. It's "Dr. Bernstein's Dibetes Solution. It's pro low carb for control, works on the theory of small numbers and has changed my relationship with diabetes dramatically. For the first time in years I'm in control. Tight Control.
I invite you all to visit my control page at the bottom of this reply. It tells the story which is too long to start on here.
Dr. B's book can be viewed online at this link.
http://www.diabetes-book.com/readit.shtml I'm not trying to sell anything here, just share my experience, strength and hope with this disease. If you never end up doing anything prescribed by this book it doesn't matter to me. We're all responisble for our own control. But I do hope you'll take a quick peek to see if you're interested.
I'm glad to be here and look forward to getting to know y'all better in the future.
Peace.....
