[Diabetes-talk] High sugars in the wake of skipping a snack?

[cheryl echevarria]

Well Michael:

This is for people that monitor there blood sugar a lot of diabetics that 
are type do not do it as often as us type 1s why I don't know but it should 
be done.

Anyway, yes you body even if you are not diabetic, normal blood sugars raise 
and lower during the day, that is why when someone is trying to lose weight 
that they eat 6 small meal and eat like every 3-4 hours, your metabolism 
will speed up, and you will lose weight.

Being a diabetic, if we don't stick our regimens they sugars go off, and our 
stress levels go up.  In affect, the makes our sugars go up.


The biggest compliment you can pay me is to recommend my services!

> Hi there.
>
> During the course of the last week, I made an extremely interesting
> observation, and I must stress three very important things here before
> waxing eloquently about my discovery.
>
> The first is that what I have observed, stems from the fact that I test
> my sugars on a regular basis.
>
> The second fact that I must point out is that I do not guarantee that
> this observation is true of every diabetic, but it is definitely
> something I am going to use a lot in my counselling of diabetics.
>
> The third thing that might also be a factor in this discovery is the
> fact that I am not only diabetic, but I also have to manage the problem
> of diabetes-related depression which occurs when my sugars go all over
> the place. The result is that I am not just on a diabetic diet but my
> diabetes counsellor has also put me on a particularly stringent diet to
> help me manage that problem. The object here is to keep blood sugar
> levels within an acceptable range, but also to try and keep them as
> stable as possible.
>
> In terms of this diet, my snacks that I have between breakfast and lunch
> and between lunch and supper, must be fruit only, while my late night
> snack is more flexible, and I usually have apples which, thanks to
> technology, are now available twelve months in the year. Apples have a
> low GI value.
>
> In short, my diabetes counsellor explained to me that Fructose has more
> of a stabilising effect on blood sugar levels, because of absorbing more
> slowly and because of being a complex sugar.
>
> Normally, my sugar levels fluctuate somewhere between 85 and 135 during
> the course of a day.
>
> I lead a very hectic life which has caused me this week, to forget to
> have my fruit snacks on two different occasions. The result was that in
> one instance, my sugar rose to 144 and in the other instance, it went up
> to 151.
>
> I wondered if anyone else on this list had the same experience?
