Damn how do u always keep ur sugar level around 120 or 100 cuz mine sometimes tends to go above 200 but i try to keep it like 170 or 140 , usually in the morning its 113.

I have a lot of food allergies so I don't eat any wheat or other grains. I eat a very low carb diet with most of my carbs coming from vegetables. I do eat some fruit and I make my own desserts with almond flour instead of wheat and stevia for sweetener. If I use any sugar, I put it on top at the end, just a teaspoon can make something taste sweet. I also exercise right after eating. 20 mins on my bike will bring my BG down 50 points.

I personally eat low carb. I find it works very well. I keep below 110 at ALL times

I set myself the target of always under 6(118) some time ago and then tightened up on it. I do LOADS of exercise and avoid carbs except for the ones in green veggies.. I have been finding it difficult lately, but I have just found out I have a Urinary Tract Infection. Where I got it heaven knows.
I find if I eat very little, it suits me. I'm also trying to lose some more weight.
Essentially I live on meat and salad. I make a huge bowl of coleslaw and keep it in the fridge, so I have some salad available at all times. [home made low carb dressing]
Today I had a big portion of coleslaw,a piece of fried fish and a bowl of frozen raspberries, thawed with cream, for my lunch and Bg after was 4.3 [77.4] I didn't check before hand. I have done an hour in the gym and a 2.5 mile cross country walk today. That was after a fried egg for my breakfast[at 6:30 am.
