After three weeks I started to notice my glucose level reading have drop by 25%, morning, afternoon and evening. (From 135 to 90 or 100 on a daily basis) I have cut back on my Lantus to once a day instead of twice a day. I have not changed my diet, but the wife and I have always split our dinner meals when we go out, 3 to 4 times a week. I make sure what ever we eat, the food must have 7% or less saturated fat, per 100 calories. I do stay away from beef as much as possible, we stick to chicken, turkey and fish products but we do often sneak a hamburger during the week or a veggie pizza. (I confess, I do drink a beer with my pizza) Walking our dog four times a week, for 45 minutes per outing. I have to assume if I did follow the proper guidelines for meals, I might not need any more pharmaceutical medication for treating my Diabetes.
