I have been on induction for 4 days and my blood sugars have been running about 116 --so I go to lunch today and my sugar was 114 i had a hamburger patty and asparagus spears and my sugar 2 hours after lunch is 334! I am so disappointed! Am i taking too much Lantus? My sugar so low that my liver is secreting sugar? Anyone have this problem? I really dont want to stop this diet I feel so much better! Any help would be greatly appreciated! thanks!

Re: help!

You should really speak to your physician about this. No one here is really qualified to speak about this, even if we're on Lantus and Atkins. Everyone reacts differently and I would hate for anyone to steer you in the wrong direction.

One question...did you make the hamburger patty and asparagus, or did you go out to eat? If it's the latter, it is possible that the restaurant has added some sugars to improve the taste. I know they do at some steak houses, so I've stopped eating steaks out.

Re: help!

I made it myself. I am really wondering if it was a bad test strip because when I took my sugar an hour later it was 128. I am going to call my endocrinologist about it tomorrow I am just worried she will discourage Atkins -she didnt look to thrilled about it when I mentioned it at my appointment and she was pushing Weight Watchers.
