oh thanks for that. I do not eat cereal and very rarely pasta, rice or potatoes. I have investigated LCHF diets thank you. It seems a lot like Atkins. Im relieved that you say the readings are not scary because I was scared.

So I had lunch and it went up to 9 straight afterwards. Is this considered a spike then or is it in the normal range? i.e. form 7.3 in morning to 9 immediately after eating.

Thanks for that info how did you manage to lose the weight and was it the reduction in weight that helped the blood sugar. I Understand then that my first blood sugar reading in the morning has to be 7 or under not 7.3. Thanks

I was diagnosed with type 2 just over 6 months ago and was told to control by diet. My first HbA1c test was 50 after three months it was 40 and I was told that was good. The nurse told me to aim for a blood sugar reading of 7 and I bought a meter as the Dr doesn't give one or strips. I must say...
