  • Sugar substitutes

    I have tried using sugar substitutes in recipes but they never taste the same as with sugar.Even following the conversion charts.I just use it in my coffee and tea.Anyway to enhance the flavor?Maybe this is to drastic for me right now.Cereal especially, tastes awful with a substitute.
  • Cinnamon plus chromium

    Anyone know anything about the subject?I have tried this and I don’t think it worked very well for me.Anyone have good luck with this?
  • Type 2 Help

    I have not been following doctors orders.I am a mature man,and when I get depressed and need comfort ,I look for comforting and enjoyable foods.Since fall of 2009 I have a no care attitude.My blood sugar has been over 300 and below 500.I need some support and do not know where to look.I am on medicine but I don’t allow it to work.I am not going to take insulin even if I have too.I always was able to bring it down.I am afraid of everything now because I must go see my doctor ,before anymore refills are given.My wife has the same problem and I guess the same attitude.What can we do , to support each other .I know he will probably want to put me on insulin,and how can I talk him out of it?It is my own fault.Anyone else feel like this?My first post thanks.:confused:
