    Freestyle libre availability

    I’m a little confused. Not by the technology but the availability. If I wanted to scan with my phone would I just need to buy the sensor? And if so, where can I get them from? Thank you

    1 month progress and Metformin decisions.

    You speak so much sense. When you put it like this, it seems like an absolute no brainier doesn’t it!

    1 month progress and Metformin decisions.

    Thanks for replying Rachox, I really appreciate it, and that article is very interesting. When you first started Metformin, when did you take it? I’ve heard mixed information but am tempted to take it before bed. Thank you x

    1 month progress and Metformin decisions.

    Good evening everyone. Today marks 4 weeks since the nurse told me I had a HBA1c of 105mmol. In those 4 weeks I have gone LCHF (no meds) and have upped my exercise to 40mins every morning (cross trainer or swimming). MySugr now has my predicted HBA1C as 54mmol which I am pleased with at...

    Victoza works in a similar way to sitagliptin. It is essentially a synthetic version of a hormone which works after a meal. It encourages the pancreas to produce insulin as well as stopping the liver from producing glucose. It also signals to the brain to make you feel fuller. These type of...

    Progress, high evening readings and taking a break from testing.

    Good morning lovely people. I just thought I’d write a quick update post as your advice so far has been invaluable and so very motivating. It’s been 3.5 weeks since the dr suggested that I may have diabetes and also 3.5 weeks since I decided to go very low carb (I’m not on medication) I’ve...

    How are you feeling after your fast @Goonergal? I’ve not been too happy with my numbers today. My out of bed reading was higher than normal and took a long time to come down. I had a choc chia pudding for breakfast and wonder if there was too many carbs in when I’m already tackling liver dump...

    Evening all. Lots of lovely sounding food today! DJC3 your Drs appointment sounds infuriating. It’s a good job you are educated about diabetes and not reliant on medical advice! I’ve had another good food day. Was working from home today which is usually when I feel more snacky, but managed...

    Good morning Shelley. This is really great advice. Thank you. I have been wondering for a while if I’ve been eating too much fat, but I’ve been happy with my BG progress and not feeling hungry so I’ve kind of just carried on assuming the weight loss would eventually catch up. I think you’re...

    P.S I made the lemon cake and was so so so surprised by how delicious it is! So light and fluffy. The only downside is the aftertaste from the sweetener. I only had Truvia at home so wondering if there are any better sweetener options out there?
