Welcome, Peggy! I dealt with hypoglycemia, too, and for a long time, was able to control it by eating more protein than carbs at breakfast, and "balancing" them throughout the day. With low fat, of course, because that's what we all thought we were supposed to do, right?

But my BG was slowly rising on my annual bloodwork, and I knew it was a matter of time...

You'll find many people here who are using IF not only to control their insulin levels, but along with that to increase the speed of their weight loss and, in general, the hold that food has over nearly all of us.
