I’ve been diagnosed with type 2 for just over a year and take one Metformin in the morning and one in the evening. To be honest I’ve still just eaten what I want because my levels have never been high, generally 7-8.4 but I’ve decided to turn a new leaf and be good and try to lose weight. Thursday and Friday I had the following
Breakfast - 1 wheatabix with skimmed milk and a banana
Lunch - scrambled eggs
Dinner - chicken and broccoli
Readings all good averaging between 5.9 and 7.00 so I thought great I’m doing well. Come this morning I get up and check my blood, 7.9 before breakfast so I take my tablet, have my wheatabix and a banana and then 2 hours later check my blood and it’s at 8.9. So for the rest of the day all I’ve had is 2 sips of the wife’s latte and a handful of popcorn and I just checked again and it’s 8.6. I just don’t get it???
