    Do you have a medical need to keep your blood sugar down?

    Are you diabetic? I was diagnosed a year ago. I'm on meds but for the most part keep my numbers down by cutting out carbs (bread, pasta, potatoes, sweets) and exercising regularly. I lift 3 days a week and try to do at least a mile walk 6 days a week.
