[QUOTE="Bluetit1802, post: 711319, member: 94045"] Hi Perth and welcome. You are doing exactly the right thing by cutting those carbs. Just keep doing this and you will see lower numbers. Have you seen the thread [url]http://www.diabetes.co.uk/forum/threads/a-new-low-carb-guide-for-beginners.68695/[/url] Have a read if not. It will help you. There are many of us on this forum on diet only, no meds, with good levels. I'm one of them. I have never been on meds and it is now almost 12 months since diagnosis. Some people start on meds and find after a while low carbing they can reduce the dose and even come off them completely. Diet is the key, plus testing before you eat and again 2 hours after your first bite. Keeping the rise down as low as possible (under 2mmol/l, ideally under 1.5mmol/l) is a good target. If the rise is more than that, there were too many carbs in that meal for you to cope with. God luck, keep posting, ask questions. [/QUOTE]
