More About This Website

This is not a medical site.  I am a grandmother diagnosed with type 2 diabetes in the spring of 2007.  My mother and two of my grandparents had been diabetics so I was not surprised when I was diagnosed.  What did surprise me, however, was my visit with a nutritionist.  I went home and tried to follow her advice.  My blood sugar did not begin to come under control.  After throwing her advice to the wind and relying on the information I had researched for my mother years ago, my common sense, and the advice from several on-line medical sites, my blood sugar is now under control averaging in the low 90s.  When I was diagnosed my blood sugar was almost 500!  I want to share my experience with others and let diabetics know they can still ENJOY GOOD FOOD including SUGAR in most cases.  WARNING:  DO NOT DROP YOUR DOCTOR'S OR NUTRITIONIST'S ADVICE WITHOUT CONSULTING THEM AND MAKE CHANGES GRADUALLY!  I AM NEITHER A DOCTOR NOR NUTRIONIST.  I just want to share with you what I have learned that has been beneficial to me.  Hopefully, it will be of help to you in some way as together we wade through the muddy waters of diabetes.Chef.
