@A DiabetesTeam Member thank you so much for the info,correct for type 1 insulin can be adjusted,T2 we need to be cautious

I can eat 2-3 carbs per meal. No more. When I eat 2-3 carbs, my 2 hour number is no higher than 135 and is often less than my before eating number.

When I eat 6 carbs my 2 hour number is 225.

So I cannot eat any carbs or sugar.

We are all different. We each have different carb tolerances.

Good luck.

Eat whatever you want?????☹️
Portion control????
Terrible advice...

I don’t believe we can eat whatever we want, like others said if we could control it we wouldn’t be here. I don’t do sugar it’s one thing I know I cannot control it’s like a drug once I have a taste I want more and more and more……. You still need to practice portion control no matter what but for those red light foods or ones that spike the blood sugar it’s cut them out of your diet for me. It’s frustrating at times but my health comes first as I want to enjoy my family and all my grandkids and be able to do things with them.

@A DiabetesTeam Member

I have to agree with you Ruby.
I worked very closely with a Dietitian for 10 odd years, as she guided me when I was diagnosed with pre diabetes.
There were certain foods that caused spikes, which I then had to cut out, while being monitored by her.
