Here, this is the best thing to turn your life around in terms of 'eating' (the absolute and complete way to eat), especially being diabetic (which runs in my family).

I have followed this since 1996, and it's the best thing that has happened to me.

I book marked the site and will read it later.
I have learned to cut down on carbohydrates which helps, but I still find it hard to stop at just one slice of Pizza Hut Meat Lovers Stuffed Crust Pizza. It takes three slices and a few beers to do it.
Being a poor boy I only indulge every few months, but even with that carb load the blood sugar doesn’t rise above my 180 max if I work out an additional ten minuets before eating and about ten or fifteen minuets after.
I found that resistance exercise burns up a lot of sugar – far more and quicker than walking or aerobics.
There’s another benefit too. I have better muscle tone and strength than I did ten years ago, nearly as much as before I had to retire. I’m 57 years old, and I don’t want to become one of those scrawny old men barely able to lift a cane – particularly in this neighborhood.
