I am new to this Forum and a diabetic for last 2 months. My Fasting BS is in the range of 118-130 and PP is in the Range of 180-210. Hb1AC score is 6.5 on 01-12-2014. Doctor has told me to reduce my weight ( Iam 88 Kgs with height 172 cms) . Since my work-place is far off from my house (45 Kms). I have to travel by bus for almost 2 hours in the morning and 2 hours in the evening and hence I leave house by 6 am in the morning and getback to house around 8 pm. So I do not find much time to exercise. I have been following the following Diet chart for Last 1 month and have lost 3 Kgs of weight.
MONDAY TO SATURDAY
MORNING (0600 Hrs): One tablespoon of overnight soaked “methi-seeds”
with 400 ml ( 2 glasses) of Luke-warm water (empty stomach)
BREAKFAST (0830 Hrs):3 Idlis or 2 dosas or 1 cup of Sooji Upma or Masala Oats or khichdi
