I have high triglycerides and was just below pre-diabetic on my glucose fasting test. My fasting blood sugar is a wee bit high. Not diabetic yet. So I obviously have some glucose tolerance problems. My doctor has suggested Sugarbusters to me, but I find that when I go on a low carb diet I get angry and agitated enough to spit nails. My husband has begged me never to try again (before the doctor recommendation of course). I admit to using foods (especially pastas and breads) as a mood stabilizer. How do I keep my moods steady without carbohydrates? It's hard to care about long term health benefits when you're having trouble making it through today.
