Hiya, I'm just wondering do we take the 2 hours after meal readings from our first bite or last bite? Many thanks!

Thank you for your explanation, Kenny. :)

I have a question about this... so I always have a wholemeal bun or bap with some scrambled eggs in the morning and before breakfast, it's like 11 or 12 something and after 2 hours, it will be raised up to 16 or 17. But if I have no carbs for lunch and dinner, 2 hours after the two meal would be...

Hello! My blood sugar is quite high today, and I've already had a lot of water and exercises. It came down a little bit, but I'm just wondering are there any ways to reduce the sugar spike if it happened again? I've seen articles online saying apple cider vinegar works, but have anyone already...

Hiya, thank you for your message. I can absolutely understand that some people prefer to stick with the strict routine where the others like myself prefer to have a little treat once in a while. I've actually tried with the dark chocolate both 70% and 85%, didn't affect my blood sugar at all...

Thank you for your reply! I don't know much about keto diet and I'm not 100% sure if that works for me either. I'm taking baby steps for now and will ask the GP and the diabetes consultant about this before making any changes myself. I just thought it could be something I could consider, maybe...

Thank you for your reply! I see, I'll keep that in mind and take baby steps for now. Maybe it will be worth to ask the consultant and a dietician about this too!

Thank you for your reply! I am not 100% sure on which type I am really is, I can find out with the appointment on Friday with a diabetes nurse. I was diagnosed with T2 after a DKA diagnosis at the a&e so I haven't seen the GP just yet. I was thinking to check with the GP, and diabetes consultant...

Thank you for your advise but I'm currently taking tests with the food I love after meal (2hours). Something that I normally enjoy to have actually didn't affect my blood sugar. I'm kind of glad. I just hope my life would be filled with possibilities and without things I love would be...

I've just seen some posts about it on dietdoctor.com. I'm not too sure if keto diet is good for my current state, but I'm trying to stick with 100g of carbs per day. Any suggestions about this? Many thanks!

Hello, I'm diabetic type 2 and I'm currently taking lantus 18 units and 6 units of trurapi before every meal. Two tablets of metformin for breakfast and dinner time. I'm just a little concerned everyday after breakfast, no matter what I had, the reading is always quite high after 2 hours. But...

Hello! I was diagnosed with type 2 diabetes just a few days ago, and I'd like to ask some alternatives for sugary cravings. Could you give me some alternative recommendations when you're craving chocolate, cake or cookies please? I think for me, I really need a cookie alternative, as I really...
