Hi Amber
Hi Amber
Hey, TigerRed, …
Hey, TigerRed, WHERE do you work?!?! That’s so amazing that they actually let you go to the break room if you’re crashing. I could never get my boss to understand. He wouldn’t understand me having to stop what I’m doing to sit down. He’s almost always got me on my toes doing stuff. I was unconscious for 45 minutes today in my warehouse (I work for a mattress store, my boss is usually in one of his stores selling, so he didn’t see me). Thankfully I was waiting on a customer pickup and had time.
Hey~ I am going for …
Hey~ I am going for my sleeve surgery next week… any suggestions? I am going to watch more videos when I get the chance! I like yours! I am a previous EMT and in my second year of Respiratory Therapy… just want to be healthy too!
hey can you please …
hey can you please share with me the meal plan im hypoglyceamic and i dont know what to eat please share thanks so much!
In case this hasn’t …
In case this hasn’t been looked into by your endocrinologist there is a condition called hyperinsulinism that causes hypoglycemia. I know this because my son has it. There are two medications called Diazoxide and Octreotide that control the hypoglycemia. If you want to see my sons story look up baby hypoglycemia on here. Good luck to you!
i have hypo. …
i have hypo. hardest thing is to eat every 2 to 3 hours. small snacks,or meals. after fainting(sugar at 15 in ambulance), my work allows me to leave the floor when i feel dizzy and go to the break room. hypo is a very serious thing! great vid
Thanks for your …
Thanks for your video, it’s so helpful to see others sharing what you are going through. This is all extremely new to me as I have had some serious spells driving across the country this past week. One day I was in Atlanta on a six lane highway and my body went on a spiral in no time flat…was kinda scary. Still learning the eating the right food part of this, hope to pick it up quickly.
Sweetie, I know …
Sweetie, I know what you’re going through(was diagnosed in 2003) but you’ve got to take better care of yourself, which means not eating processed food. I don’t know u personally but from what I’ve heard, you’re not eating the right foods or often enough. It’s imperative to learn the difference between simple carbs(juice, candy) & complex carbs(fruits/veggies, whole grains). Small, frequent meals/snacks with lean protein & complex carbs are essential to maintain blood sugar.

I’m hypoglycemic …
I’m hypoglycemic and feel like crap about 1/3 of the time, sometimes every day.
It’s not fun, but it’s good that you know what to do to control it. I didn’t, and had a really sugary drink at the bar one night. My blood sugar plummeted, and I threw up for about two hours. It was horrible- people just stepped around me and treated me like a bum in the street, not a paying customer who worked for his money. The hypoglycemia affected my work habits too; when I crashed I had trouble with balance.

catching up on videos.. how’s adding milk working for you? I hope you are feeling better now???
Yes the wax helped …
Yes the wax helped and I guess I’m just used to them again now… LOL Thanks for watcing!
I’m sorry about …
I’m sorry about what you are going through now, but like you said, you can control it so that is a good thing. Start eating your protein. I can’t eat as soon as I get up so I make a shake, and then eat breakfast 3-4 hours later. I’m so happy to see your lip is doing better, did the wax finally help?
Interesting info. …
Interesting info. Thank you for sharing.
Hi Amber, Please …
Hi Amber, Please Google this exact term [including the speech marks] “Energy drinks safety questioned by German agency” … and You should find yesterday’s headline re HYPOglycemia / caffeine [and your MD saying its 'ok' for when ?] ‘… 05-Jun-2008 – Energy drinks have the potential to cause liver damage, heart failure ['seizure / cramp / neuroglycopenia'] and even death and should carry warnings for certain population groups …’ ?

I had a shake this a.m. and it helped! I am feeling better so far thanks!
Thankfully I can …
Thankfully I can still tolerate milk, but I use the calorie countdown for the lower sugar count. What kind of yogurt do you eat? I have the Light and Fit Carb Control, but it’s not very filling. I’ll try to add some protein to it and see what happens.
I skip breakfast …
I skip breakfast too but now since i weightlift i drink an instant breakfast every morning. but i hope you feel better.
Milk alone would …
Milk alone would throw me into the shakes and dumping. I drink soy milk. Do you like yogurt for breakfast? There are lots of different flavors and I blend mine with protien. Rather drink my yogurt then eat it. Take care girl!
Thank you! I’ll …
Thank you! I’ll letcha know if the milk works or not if it happens again….
Thanks!
Thanks!
I don’t drink …
I don’t drink alcohol, and although my surgeon ok’s caffiene, I am going to have to cut down if it’s going to make me sick! Thanks for watching!
Yeah I heard …
Blah! lol
Yeah I heard caffiene is the enemy of blood sugar
Yes a protein shake …
Yes a protein shake is a good idea!
Hi, Where were You …
Hi, Where were You thinking, in terms of ‘being there’ to make a choice to eat or not to eat, when your hand lifted the muffin up in the air and then put the muffin in your mouth ? Warm thanks; Nick Gracey; WATerian
Yes, feeling sucks, …
Yes, feeling sucks, but I’m glad you spoke with your doc office. Milk? I have never heard that, but that is interesting. I’ve never been a breakfast either. Feel better girl.
