First of all.....take a deep breath...and realize that his sugar readings are NOT YOUR RESPONSIBILTY!!!!! My husband has familial (family related) diabetes, his mother, father, and all 4 siblings have diabetes, along with heart disease but not cholesterol problems. We have found that even a few 'bad' foods, regulated by pills or insulin, is not the end of his life. He has been a diabetic, heart problem patient from 1998, and he is 80 years old. Remember to enjoy life to it's fullest, and make whatever good food choices you can. Life is not to be lived "Military!" AND DEFINATELY STAY AWAY FROM REDUCED SUGAR OR SUGAR FREE!!! (Aspartame is a wonderful ant killer.) As to the fat...the body needs enough to keep fit. Olive oil is the best because of the Omegas in it. Fish is also great.
Live life large, and our prayers with you
