according to my doctor, that i saw yesterday 10/11/07, the diabetic diet is similar to the atkins... so, there are a few adjustments I'd have to make.. as per I discussed with my doctor, but I was so hoping that someone here in this forum has done the atkins diet and had some ideas. She did tell me about the glycemic index too.. so I will be combining the two.. unfortunately, my blood sugar was 140 -2 hours after vomiting back up an apple I ate, so that said, even the smallest amount of carb, however healthy for me is not good... she is giving me one last shot to not have to take diabetic medication... so I come to you in humble asking, what are good atkins foods for a diabetic? I guess maybe the question I'm really asking, is any diabetics on here done the atkins.. and what foods helped... thanks so much.
