Hey thanks for the update! Love watching your new vids, you sound just like your going through the same things i did when i found out i had diabetes. I also was real strict on my eating at first. Dropped weight so fast i thought i had other problems. The first few months i was feeling like i was always weak and kinda shakey from the diet i was on. The more i learned about carbs i realized that i was almost starving myself. My blood sugar was where it was supposed to be, its just that i was not used to running on so little fuel. As a year or so went by, i started to eat a little bit more carbs like mac in cheese, just not as much or often. I started to drink milk again in moderation. I actually got to the point where i was gaining weight again, so i started to cut back. Now i know what i can get away with as far as cheating goes. A couple months ago i had my first french fries since my diagnosis and did a experiment. I ate a big plate of french fries and tested my blood 2 hours later. My blood sugar was at 160 which is high, but nothing like it was when i first did blood work. Now i figure if i have a small potato once in a while, i should be able to curb my potato cravings. I am already loosing the 5 lbs. i gained since i relaxed my diet. I feel much better now that i am finding a happy medium on my intake. Keep up the videos man, i will be watching for your next one!
+virtualguitarist I know exactly what you mean. I replaced the carbs with lots of but and that kept me fueled up and still lost the weight. Check out Dietdoctor.com. Awesome site with great info!
