I hate that my blood sugars are rising.

I've been on the GD diet for almost 5 weeks and right at 4 weeks my numbers started rising.  I'm not going over, but instead of 115s-120s one hour after eating I'm now in the high 130s.  I've had to change my breakfast from 18g carb whole wheat toast to 10g carb whole wheat toast.  My lunch today is the same one I've had for almost 4 weeks straight and it's usually good with 110-115 and now it's in the 130s.  I just hope I can adjust my diet enough to keep it under 140 so I won't need meds.

Good luck. One thing they told me at the diabetic center is the further along you get the harder it can get to control without meds as your body has all sorts of hormones going wacky in there so if you do need meds just remember its not necessarily anything you've done wrong(unless you go on a carb-overload binge).

I've been eating the pepperidge farm carb style bread....it's only 8g of carbs and tastes good.
