doyouhear 8 Posted January 17, 2017 Hello!! I've had a few episodes of my blood sugar going as low as 45...I am guessing it is reactive hypoglycemia due to symptoms that happen alongside the low number. My questions: 1.anyone else dealing with this? I am almost 18mos out from bypass. 2. What do you eat when you are super low that brings sugars up but not too high, perpetuating the cycle? 3. Once there was a CLEAR reason: I sort of let myself get guilted into eating a slice of birthday cake; but the other times I really don't know what caused the low blood sugars. I am trying to get into a nutritionist but with my work schedule I am having difficulty. Any thoughts or inputs would be greatly appreciated! Thank you!!

fatontheinside 92 Posted January 17, 2017 @@doyouhear this happens to me when I don't pay attention to what I am eating. I even had my doctor give me a meter to track my sugars. I have to be conscious to stick to my high Protein diet and take in NO MORE THAN 6 grams of sugar in my meals. Luckily, the feeling passes within about 30 minutes but that 30 minutes is the worst thing of my life. I just have to be SUPER diligent on what I eat, how much, and when. Consistency is the key. I hope this helps you!! Good luck on staying steady! Linda www.fatontheinsideblog.wordpress.com Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
