Guest guest Posted March 8, 2007 Report Share Posted March 8, 2007 Hello everyone! My name is Carly.I'm new to the group. I wanted to say hello and ask for a bit of guidance. I'm a type 2 diabetic. I have been reading and learning about the raw food life style and I believe that it would help me a great deal.I was a vegetarian 18 years ago,but when I became pregnant my doctors said I must eat meat,because of the pregnancy and also because I was anemic...biggest mistake I ever made. I have eliminated processed foods,sugar,all kinds of flour,white rice,potatoes.In fact I have not been eating grains for 2 months now. I have been eating 2/3 of my meals raw for a couple of weeks now. My blood sugars have been between 90 and 120 for the most part,except when I over do it with the fruit....I love my fruit,but I realize I have to cut down.I've been making green smoothies for breakfast, with fruit and greens.I've been learning about sprouting a bit as well. I eat some fish but have cut out meat and chicken drastically.I would like to get to the point where I'm not eating any meats,cooked or otherwise.I would appreciate any tips,advice and suggestions about what I should be including in my diet etc... I am on several medications for my diabetes and I really want to get off of them.I know this can be accomplished by eating whole live foods,and exercising,but I need some help. Thank you all and have a wonderful night! Carly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
