There are many things you can eat and I feel for you, that's a nasty sugar drop right there. 14? Wow. The best thing to do is to avoid, obviously, all simple sugars. No white bread, no white pasta or rice, no sugar, no pop, no alcohol, no coffee and so forth. What you need to do is find an adequate carbohydrate level that seems to keep you fairly stable in terms of symptoms, though don't expect to feel awesome, and stick with it so your body adapts, and then within a few months (sometimes up to a year or more, as in my case) you can increase the carbohydrates and add new foods. I'm only eating five times a day now and have increased fruit intake and such, but I'm still unable to eat grains or bread products of any kind. What are you eating now?

Yep, dropped to 14, I think that is probably the lowest I've ever been. But I have the the same thing happen before where I get the seizure when I go into the low 20's-high teens.

So you are allowed some carbohydrates. I didn't know that - I was starting to think of trying to keep any form of carbohydrate out of my diet.

All this week I've started with scrabbled eggs and half a piece of wholegrain bread for breakfast and lunch which is roughly 30 grams of carbs and for the day approx 35-40 I think for the milk (see further below). For dinner I'll just have chicken or some fish. If I'm hungry between meals I'll have some celery and walnuts. Are walnuts okay? Or are they bad for hypoglycemia too? I was drinking coffee but now have tea of decaf coffee, is that alright or do I need to eliminate tea and even decaf coffee from my diet? I'm not sure what else to eat other than what I'm eating atm - eggs, chicken or fish, celery and walnuts and the 1 piece of bread I have for the day (1/2 a piece for breakfast and lunch).

What kind of fruits do you eat? I was worried about having fruit as fruit contains fructose and wasn't sure if that would be bad or not..

Thank you.

You have to have some carbohydrates, otherwise you'll feel awful and get worse. Dropping below 60g per day will do it usually. Most of your carbohydrates should be coming from vegetables, but only stuff like peppers, green beans, broccoli, brussels sprouts and so forth, avoid root vegetables entirely. You can have most forms of squash and a wide variety of greens. I normally recommend eating yogurt instead of milk because it's pretty much a simple sugar, but if it seems okay with you stick with it. Be certain your bread is whole grain and check the label to be sure. Never trust anything until you read the label. It's best if you can find a local bakery that makes bread from raw grains or if you purchase sprouted grain bread. Expensive, but only eating half a piece per day will last you awhile. Walnuts are great for you. Probably the best nut there is (stay away from peanuts and cashews, by the way, they're actually beans and not nuts). Walnuts have high levels of tryptophan and can help calm you and keep your mentally stable. Unfortunately, any tea or coffee that is decaf still has caffeine. Many people think it means no caffeine, but this isn't true. You're going to have to drink herbal teas because any caffeine will be bad for you right now, though later you may be able to handle it in small doses. Don't forget turkey, shrimp and any other variety of meat really. Organic/free range is best for meats, but it's very expensive so if you can't afford it just make sure your meat doesn't have anything crappy added to it. Do you have a Whole Foods nearby? There are some great things you can eat there like turkey sausages they make on site that have no bad additives. As for fruit, I currently eat about one or one and a half apples per day. That's all you really need, but now I'm able to eat watermelon and such. Totally avoid bananas, they're bad news. I would start with berries or apples. You need to have some fruit and should notice a difference when you add it in. Apples seem to work the best. When I first started I was eating one slice for breakfast and then half a slice every meal thereafter, but you might find a half or even a whole apple in the morning enough for the whole day.
