Well my friend you have done a better job than I have. I have been a Diabetic for a year now same as you no meds but I do good for a short than I seem to fall back into food. Do you find that you cant eat alot of things? It seems only Veggies and meat and fish for me if I eat pasta or oatmeal or cerals it spikes?

Sometimes we tend to fall back into old habits with our eating when we think we are in control. I noticed that I was adding little"extras" to my diet and my numbers started to creep up. Got back on the straight and narrow, and everything is back under control again.

Earlier my dr told me I could eat more calories but when I did I gained weight and my numbers went up.

I have been controlling my diabetes with diet and exercise ever since I was first diagnosed a few years ago. No diabetic meds. My a1c has been going up steadily and I do not understand why my doc won't do something. My numbers have been high w/ every check since I saw her a couple of weeks ago. Even my morning before bkfast is high. I am seeing my doc this Wed. and hopefully she will do the a1c she left out at my recent check up. Well, I have rambled long enough. I hope someone has some ideas.
