Hi Everybody
I have been on South Beach since February and am doing very well-it is a great diet. Now my husband wants to go on it but he is a diabetic and is wondering what type of legal snack he could have if his blood sugar goes low. Normally he would have a glass of juice. Any suggestions. Thank you. |

HI JuliaR,
If your husband is a diabetic he should start with P2 due to the fact that he needs the natural sugar from thr fruit. I am a diabetic as well and I took the diet book to the doctors and he looked it over and said i could not do p1 because i need the natural sugar from the fruits.
He can do p2 using just the fruit not the grains. The fruits keeps the sugar from going to low. My sugars have been in the normal range and i have been eating fruits and 1 grain a day. I get wiegh on Monday to see how much i have lost.
I have never felt better in my life as i do now. If i can help anymore let me know . You can pm me at anytime

Hello everyone,
Thanks for joining us here. We now have several diabetics on the SBD threads running in this new health and medical issues forum. That must be very confusing for everyone. Also, I think that it would be better for us to all get together in one thread.
So, I created a new thread called "Diabetics on the Beach" in the Health and Medical Issues subforum.
Won't you please join us there? Let's all move to the new thread. Again, it is called "Diabetics on the Beach".
Looking forward to getting to know you all and to learn from each of your experiences.
Thanks! :D |

I was diagnosed as a diabetic July 30th, 2 high blood glucose level readings after 12 hour fasts. I started the SBD on August 1st. My blood glucose has been below 106 since day 2!
Just curious, any of the diabetics here also have/had Graves Disease? |

Hey Bob,
I am trying to get everyone together on the new thread I started today. I apologize for the confusion ... I put Diabetics on South Beach topics on three different subforums. Then they all got moved to this forum.
Please join us on the new thread, "DIABETICS ON THE BEACH". Looking forward to seeing you there soon. |
