Maybe I can help you reduce those numbers. I found out that eating plain yogurt DRAMATICALLY reduces my sugar readings. I mean really really reduces.
As long as I eat a cup of Fage yogurt, I am good to go (and I mean that literally). It has friendly bacteria and it's just plain good for you.
Now I don't know if we've discussed this before, and maybe you don't like the taste of yogurt, but honestly, with those numbers, YOU HAVE TO LEARN TO LIKE IT!!! lol
I love Fage plain. Zero fat. It tastes like sour cream. It took me some while to not make a face when I put it in my mouth. But now I can't imagine not eating it. My body LOVES yogurt.
It loves it so much, I am now bidding on a yogurt maker on ebay.
I'll be making my own homemade yogurt from now on. Buying it is much too expensive and since the people at Cornell are the ones who told me to eat Fage, well, they seem to know their stuff.
Thankfully, I do love it. But at $2.00 a pop, well, I'm glad I can make this in my kitchen.
That, and my sprouts, well, I'm in heaven.
I feel like I'm turning into an Amish Farm Wife.
