[QUOTE="RFSMarch, post: 1592002, member: 410451"] Welcome to the forum and you already have some great advice. As you might see by my sig below, I was high everything, and brought it down in three months with a few little tweaks. I will admit I balked at the HF element of LCHF because the GP’s words of “lay off the full fat dairy”was ringing in my ears. I did try fat free Greek Yoghurt which looks and tastes like grout!!! I went back to normal Greek yoghurt, berries, and shifted from high GI foods to low GI foods which helped me stabilize. Now with my cholesterol in more normal ranges I feel a little more confident in aiming for a low carb dinner in the evenings. You have to test, and I believe the codefree options you have been given are great value for money. I opted for a flash glucose monitoring system which measures your BG using a sensor in your arm, but they are hella pricey. But finger pricking multiple times a day when you are a writer is not the most feasible option!!! Wish you all the best with your journey, and this is the best place to be. [/QUOTE]
