Q: Hypoglycemic Diet
asked by: wdiguy on October 24th, 2006

Hey is everyone that is on the diet spending alot of money on food. Im on the eat every 2 hour schedule and it seems like I spend a bunch of money. Also with me eating every two hours I notice that once the two hours gets close I start getting weak and losing energy. Is my sugar dropping that quick? Or do I need more carbs to last longer? I only get my carbs really from fruit, almonds, broccoli, and salad if there is any. And it gets hard to eat every two hours especially at work. So sometimes it might be 3.

May just be adjustments. You can try to add more vegetables, probably some with higher carbs if you want to try it. Are you eating around 100g per day? I sometimes get like that, well I used to at least, about 15 minutes before i'd have to eat. It's the body adjusting.

Yeah that is about the time its happening. Everything else has improved tremendously. As you can see you havent seen any complaint post from me lately. I have trouble remembering what symptoms I had cause they been gone for 2 weeks and I forgot already. When your feeling well you just dont worry about symptoms cause there not there. When you get the symptoms you start thinking about them, well at least I do. But right now im at the point where im getting weak if I dont eat every two hours. But thanks for the response. I think theres only a couple people that talk on here. I know there are tons of people who are suffering from hg symtpoms. Just suprised there arent more people on here. Thats what happens I guess when you get misdiagnosed. And think ur getting appropriate treatment.

Yeah, it's sad. I have the same thing happen to me man, so don't worry about it, i'll be great for two weeks in a row and get a little edgy and think it's the end of the world.

Smaller Portions & Avoid the Sugar Monster
We've gone thru some of the similar problems in our family. Energy level peaks and drops, and eating every 2 hours isn't always realistic to maintain long term. They hg diet and glycemic programs that focus on longer digestion food cycles we found more helpful.

The 2 hour food cycles actually tended to make our son more irritable than just about anything - stick with it man.
