is one of the easier explaination of IR i've found. they say that the fasting blood sugar should be 75-80, and the fasting insulin 14 or less. annoying, they don't give the 2 hour post glucola levels. but still, it's an interesting website.
oh and hi , i'm babe. i was diagnosised with IR a couple of years ago, ignored for a year, did straight atkins for a year, and now i've kinda sliding into the link and balance IR diet. it's kinda strange eating carbs, even in small amts. and the low fat part of it (not really sure i buy that part of the diet), but it's worth a try. my weight loss is totally stalled, and my glucose and insulin level labs are not really any better on atkins (my cholesterol and tricglcerides are great). so i'm ready to try a little change.
