    Thanks guys :)
    I ám seeing a diabetis nurse regularly but when I was overeating my sugar levels withóut taking any medicines were always around 7.5 or lower so now I'm eating healthy and slim most of the time that's not an issue.
    I do have high blood pressure but take medicines and they're usually good now but I know I still need to check that so I'll try keep that in check.
    I'll relax a little..I was getting really nervous about it LOL.
    Thanks again :D

    My mother is type one diabetic. Her Dr told her not to worry about sugar as much as carbs (since sugar IS a carb and carbs raise your blood sugar). He told her to aim for 30 carbs per meal (Probably 100-120 per day). Not sure if this would apply to you as well.

    Fruit sugar vs ADDED sugar.

    Fruit sugar is natural, added sugar contains chemicals.

    Like I said, I knew posting that would be debatable!

    Just out of curiosity.. if I was allowed 24 grams of sugar per day.. how would you work that out without going over?? Remember, fruits and veggies are GOOD for our bodies... I am curious to hear your answer :happy:

    I don't track sugar, so that is my answer....

    Ok so if I take organic sugar and add it to my coffee that is bad, because it is added right?
