Accu-Chek Mobile would be great, if it didn't force you to use all strips within a month. If you don't use them, the meter will not read them.Welcome to the forum @Yerusha
I speak from the huge experience of 2 weeks on the forum, so bear that in mind.
Bread in virtually all its forms is high in carbs. I personally would much rather take my carbs from fresh green leafy vegetables, which ultimately leave my hunger more satisfied. I do miss bread of course but it sends my blood sugar very high. I personally find it easier to stop something completely rather than wean myself off. But everyone is different.
I bought one of those 'Accu-Chek Mobile' blood testers from Amazon for about £20. No visible needles if that is an issue for you. Best purchase ever. Armed with one of those, you can judge for yourself what affects you (spikes you) and what doesn't.
Good luck
