It is commendable that you have started dietary changes.However I suggest you visit your doctor as your sugar level requires treatment with medicines too. Also, it is better that you learn about dietary changes from your doctor rather than doing it yourself. Crash diets shouldnt be attempted and the balance in dietary carbohydrates, proteins and fats needs to be maintained rather than reducing carbohydrates to a very low level. Excessive protein intake isnt good for your body. Wish you a healthy life.
