I have been testing before and after meals, and there is a jump of 2 or 3, but then I am really high at the moment. My morning level today was 17. How long does a honeymoon period last for, I mean I came off insulin in Oct 2009?

I have to admit beacuse of work and quite an awkward divorce, I have not been to the gym or played rugby as much as I did. Meal wise.. Breakfast - Toast / Cereal Lunch (Workday) - Homemde sandwiches / salad. Weekends - Sunday Lunch or wraps etc Evening Meals - Home made food, chillies...
