  1. Indeed, thankfully I good a digging up answers and judging content. I have a list of red flags.
  2. The real issue in life is knowing how to learn. Like it or not it is each person's responsibility to learn what to eat. Nobody forced poor food choices on you. U selected the wat you eat. The medical community and the government were of little help. We been harmed not our fault, but yes, our problem. My world is the Zero Carb Carnivore Lifestyle. It took 4 years to learn that. Be well my friends.
  3. Lol, ty. I be happy with a A1c < 5, and < 25 units of insulin per day by 07/12/2026. Marking my 70th birthday!
  4. Great, very nice to see good results. My some what recent weight increase is reversing. As of, 3/15 /2026 my 7 day BGL has dropped to 87, the goal of 83 is in reach.
  5. BGL 7 day average is down to 88 mg/dL ! Final target is 83. Tomorrow is blood draw, A1c and CMP. Sunday March 22 @ 7 PM I will be live with Rock'n Amy. Join us for my Diabetes Story and my latest A1c result. Get updated on World Irish Dance Competition. Saturday April 11, at 4 PM, live fat chew with Tom. There is a CGM give away !! Come as two diabetics tell it as they see it that be enough, mark your calendar.
  6. So where are u in NC?? I lived in Hickory from 1990bto 2019. Paul
  7. That is what it is. It does not matter what type. It is high BGL. There, In my opinion, is no pre diabetes and no touch of diabetes. (This is Dr. Bernstein's way of thinking) For most, the real solution is a low or very low carb diet. I do a Zero Carb Carnivore Lifestyle. I follow Bernstein almost exclusively now. This morning I reached a new 7 day average BGL, 90 mg/dL. Headed to Bernstein's suggested target of 83. In the last 8 months I never been so ZERO strict. , next week I will have a new A1c lab. Once I get to the 83 mg/dL level i will resume reducing the insulin dose. My old BGL target was 114, that is the effect Bernstein has had on me. Be well
  8. Here is a great representation of progress on my Zero Carb Carnivore Lifestyle. Over 7 days my BGL pattern. Shrinking into the 70 tp 100 mg/dL range all day long. Some medical doctors will be disturbed that it is diet and not pharmaceuticals driving the results. The daily BGL average for 7 days here is 94
  9. I recently noticed 2 things in my Zero Carb Carnivore Lifestyle. Most everyone experiences the Dawn Effect, a natural rise in one's Blood Glucose Level in the early morning. Part of waking up. 1. Sometimes my rise is small, maybe 15 or so and goes down to normalize 30 b to 45 minutes. 2. Even my big Dawn Effect , like 30 to 40 mg/dL, returns to normal in a similar fashion. As one eats the appropriate human diet our bodies go better ! A side note: my 7 day, average BGL continues to drop, 94 this morning ! Look out 85, here i come.
  10. Yes, or they doing what they are told to do by corporate. Nonetheless, cled minds. BTW, was 96 this morning.
  11. That 99 is down to 96. Don't you just love it! My PCP does not know what to think, other than this must be dangerous and I'm going to have a stroke.
  12. Yes. I am Diabetic. Here Is the last 7 day cgm report. A Zero carb lifestyle.
  13. The sad issue here is that many drugs are pushed to market without enough testing nowadays. The end user, the patient, is the long term test. These drugs in this class are very profitable. New versions will come along and prices will decrease. A few years ago insulins were very pricy and profitable. New manufacturers entered the market, price dropped from 800 dollars a month to 100 dollars.
  14. UPDATE: Tightened control I have changed my BGL range. From 70 - 130 , now 70 to 100. Looking for an average BGL of 85. Also doing my insulin with a different insulin and different timing. Is my job. Not something anyone else is going to do. Some doctors would say they should call the shots. It I s going well with the changes so far.
  15. Ty, I have learned a lot from bernstein. So much to learn
  16. Not really changing anything. Just, i now realize that if it is good for T1D then it good for I t all diabetic types. So, it is still zero carbs. With a focus on exercise. I am carefully examining everything. I am exploring the wisdom put forth by Dr. Richard Berstein, MD. In doing so I believe there is a better insulin regime that will suit my carnivore lifestyle better. Therefore I doing a bit of experimenting. Older types of insulin can be purchased in most states at Walmart. No prescription needed. You have to ask for it at the pharmacy counter. Labs are going to plan and I should have results inside of 2 weeks. I am figuring out the details, mostly without my doctors. Every one be well.
  17. Lost nearly 7 pounds. Long Acting insulin reduced by 3 more units. Revised Long term goals to even a lower Blood Glucose Level. Lining up labs for March. Will be on with Juliet on March 22, and target prime rib om April 11.
  18. I watch Tony Hampton every morning. Was a good post. I left a comment there. I forget who regulates CGM and other Glucose meter accuracy. They have to show a an accuracy of plus or minus 12%. so if device says 100, a blood lab needs to be between 88 and 112. Manufacturers file regular reports.
  19. Every other American is pre type 2, type 2, or one of those undiagnosed. Dr. Ken Berry estimates 70 % of all PCP can not diagnose T2DM properly. It costs 1.5 Billion dollars per day. Is the leading cause of cardiovascular disease. If T2DM was contagious., the streets would be empty. It increases by a percent or two every year. Likely to hit 60% in 2030. A leg is amputated from a diabetic every 4 minutes. Toes every 2 minutes. That's what it really is. The ADA has not had any positive effect , ever. The Ketogenic diet is the most studied dirt for T2DM. Just the facts, people
  20. Was not sure where to post this. I was watching some recent Dr. Ken Berry a few days ago. I was interested as the subject was diabetes. He mentioned his private group so I looked it up. $ 30 a month I r $ 300 a year. Like 4 years ago entry lev was $ 5 a month. I left after about 18 months. At that time there was about 9000 Members. That would b e minimum of 45,000 dollars a month. At 30 a month he needs 1,500 signed op to match that. I would think at his pricing it may be a decent n t group. Is any one a current member?? I just curious.
