It has been too long since I presented
websites of value for those of us with diabetes can use. The last
was back in February 2013.
I presently have a few links that I
have found useful for me and hopefully you will find them useful for
your diabetes living.

This link is for a very good discussion on low carb/high fat meals.
The website explains why this works and why you lose weight and stop
losing when you reach your ideal weight. Many people are following
this diet and seeing improvements in their cholesterol levels and
some with hypertension improvement.
While this is part of a diabetes forum,
it is at least a topic that they use. Not enough people follow the
principal of “eating to your meter.” This forum combines this
with several other of the sites in this blog for a well-rounded low
carb/high fat meal plan and managing diabetes.

This is important when you have to be in a hospital for an accident,
surgery, or disease treatment, this is important to read. These give
instructions that you should follow to minimize the damage hospitals
or nursing homes can do to your diabetes management.

This will help those not wanting to use low car/high fat or not
believing in high fat to get started after diagnosis. As you learn
that fat is not your enemy, the meal plan will come together to help
you manage your diabetes.

Don't fall for the toxic myth that you caused your diabetes by
reckless overeating. This if often promoted by doctors that don't
know better. People with diabetes often are seriously overweight;
there is accumulating evidence that their overweight is a symptom,
not the cause of the process that leads to Type 2 Diabetes.

This will take you to the site and allow you to read more on
diabetes.

You may need to join the website to get to this. You can do this by
using everything before profiles. This is one way to follow an
author and in this case, it is David Mendosa. David is following a
vegetarian style plan. I cannot because I like my red meat and dairy
products. I have eliminated the processed red meats, but I like my
well marbled meats and I would use lard if it was not for my wife who
keeps it out of the house. Therefore, I use a lot of butter for
cooking and use olive oil for some cooking.
http://www.diabetes.org/diabetes-basics/common-terms/ There
are many terms we as people with diabetes often encounter in our
reading and I have learned many of the terms out of necessity.
This is a two page listing of common medical errors and why. Much is based on misread abbreviations and shows common misreading errors.
