So within 10 minutes, I've took 3 test on my Glucometer. First was 8.9. Second was 8.0 and third was 8.5? Sound like a faulty machine?

Thank you everyone. I have just done anothet blood test (two hours after my cake and 500ml ice-cream tub) astonishingly, my blood level is 6.6? How is this?

Really? It should be higher than that? I really need to find a dietician or diet plan

Yeah I only ordered the ice-cream and cake after I found out my blood sugar was 10.9. Pasta shouldn't do that to you surely when it's just a wee bit

Hi guy's, For those that don't know, I was diagnosed with pre-diabetes just over a month ago. Since then I have made drastic changes to diet and exercised more, I've lost 9 pounds so far so thought things were on track. I've been taking a fasting test in the morning which has been between...

Anybody?? No?

Hi guys, Now that I've stopped taking Lucozade (or any sugary drinks for that matter). And cutting my carbs down. What things would be good to eat or drink before going a run and how long before a run should I consume them? Thank you

Hi. Thank you everyone for you're kind posts. @Cocosilk I'll tell you the foods I tend to eat. Breakfast: porridge (plain without sugar) Lunch: egg mayo or chicken sandwich Dinner: chicken, brocoli and parsnip/beetroot chips. Sometimes pasta with mince This, of course, is the foods I'm now...

Pre-diabetes, newly diagnosed

Yeah sorry I took you're post the wrong way. I perhaps should have explained why I took the lucozade. I feel it gives me a 'boost' physically when I'm running but when I took my blood, I was like aw ******, why is it high and my first suspect was lucozade

Hi. Thank you for advice. Didn't like @Antje77 comment if I'm honest. Asking me why I'm drinking lucozade?! If I knew it was a bad thing to do I wouldn't be drinking it. I did state "newbie" to all this. Was not constructive in the slightest

Wow. Some scary symptoms there. I am pre-diabetes so hoping I can turn this around with diet. Still not sure if what I'm eating is the best but sure ill soon find out

Aw got you. So we really want to be in between the two really? That's the aim I guess. So symptoms of low and high would be? Just so I know what to look out for
