Hi all,
I have insulin resistance (I take 1000 mg metformin with breakfast, and 1000 mg metformin with dinner) and am trying to follow the Insulin Resistance diet. Basically, it consists of moderating carbs and always balancing carbs with protein. Not to eat more than 30 g carbs at a meal and have at least 14 g protein - and half those numbers for snacks (15 g carbs and 7 g protein). Eating every 3 hours or so to keep blood sugar levels stable (wanting to avoid highs and lows, but keep it steady). And trying to keep fat in check, so choosing lean proteins (fat free dairy products, chicken breast, etc) and using healthy tub margarine instead of butter, that kind of thing.
Anyone else out there trying to follow this or a similar plan? If so, want to swap ideas for meals/snacks and how to hit those numbers for carbs and protein? Thanks and hope there are others out there!
