Hi everyone, Thanks so much for the concern and suggestions. At least I'm keeping my girlish figure ;-) LOL!

I do eat chicken, pork, steak, and hamburger, usually broiled or baked. I have very small servings of peanuts, although they make me sneeze, and I have one serving a day of a half a rye cracker with almond butter. It's delicious but I am allergic to nuts in that they give me sinus problems. Sometimes, I have cheese but I'm trying to cut that out right now. Oh, yeah, for breakfast I have a sugar-free bacon and an egg, although I'm allergic to eggs. Because I meeting all these foods and I'm allergic to, I live on extra strength antihistamines and cortisone, both of which aggravate my blood sugar! And I eat very small TINY portions of whole wheat bread.

Before I went on the bacon and cheese, I lost 15 pounds and was underweight, which is funny because I spent my whole entire lifetime trying to lose 15 pounds. Then doctors wanted to put me on Ensure but it was full sugar! The bacon helped me to gain some weight back.

I have an extremely low carbohydrate tolerance so when I deviate from this diet, I've really pay. But obviously, it's just not a diet that anyone can stick to for any period of time. The other night I ordered a huge container of Chinese food and I'm still paying for my sins :-)

My hypoglycemia was caused by stomach surgery and I can't help but believe that there must be a corrective surgery that will cure it. I've seen several specialists and one surgeon and they say it can't be done but I don't believe it. I've read about different surgeries that should be able to help me. Problem is that you can't refer yourself to a surgeon!

Anyway, sorry for rambling so long. I dictate with a voice program, so often my posts are really long. My apologies!

Love, Sigrid
