Trigger Mike Posted August 25, 2021 Share Posted August 25, 2021 I have diabetes and am working on getting my numbers down. Despite that, yesterday was a busy day. My oldest son had surgery to put a screw in his wrist due to a broken bone. We got home late in the afternoon. He needed prescriptions and something he could keep down. The same evening my younger sons school shotgun team had practice. I have to eat on time or I get really irritable and sugar gets low. My wife decided to bring cpt D'S fish. I'm anticipating my usual, 2 fish, 2 chicken and 6 shrimp meal with broccoli and fries. I open the lid and find a small piece of baked fish on top of rice that she tells me not to eat and 2 helpings of broccoli. I was downtrodden. I snuck a half piece of fried fish when she wasn't looking. I got this odd look of disappointment from her. I was starving. I made do until I got home. I ate a banana and 3 boiled eggs and drank a glass of lemon and cucumber water. I felt better then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DocWard Posted August 25, 2021 Share Posted August 25, 2021 It sounds like she is trying to watch out for you. I don’t know if she is doing a good job or not, but are you working with a dietitian? If not, ask your doctor if you can, and ask if your wife can and will join you. It may be the severe diet isn’t necessary, but I would let someone with expertise guide me.

Trigger Mike Posted August 25, 2021 Author Share Posted August 25, 2021 I had one long ago, we moved so I need to find one again, the virus alters what we have access to, but a dietician would make things better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That ain't the way... bananas are simply murder on your glucose levels. They send my numbers to the moon. I'm a labile diabetic, and find this to be helpful: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you are Diabetic and trying to eat to get your numbers down, I ain't sure FRIES should be on your menu. ..........Widder Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
