I'm type 2 for 7 years and my doctor told me reducing my carbs would help my blood sugar and they were right.

Lowering your carbs to 20-30 a day, spread throughout the day will not only help in lowering your blood sugar but also in keeping your levels even.

You get all the carbs you need from eggs, cheese and your vegetables. Mine responded well in a week and very well after several weeks. I also don't get that mid afternoon so sleepy feeling from having high carbs throughout the morning.

Last year was rough for me as I was scheduled for spine surgery when my sugars went out of control. My doctor told me that infections, stress and pain make your body pump more steroids which in turn increases your blood sugar.

You might consider eating smaller meals throughout the day, some handy things that I carry with me "just in case" are those little 1oz bags of peanuts, a can of tuna or even a hard boiled egg or some cheese.
