15.9 then shredded wheat with my new Gliclazide then 20.2 after 2 hrs.

Went to nurse yesterday and got a right telling off and told my metformin and poor diet and shift work is playing havoc with my T2 and I have to sort myself out.

I’m totally confused as to what to eat

Thank you so much, this is confusing

Yes it is. :) But it gets less so as we go along. The forums @Prem51 mentioned are really helpful too, as are two threads where you can post FBGs and also chat with other members. Plus another BG thread I just discovered.

5.8 at 4:00 pm.

First day of Spring to day whooopeee...

Here, regardless of what the calendar doesn't say yet, today felt like the first official day of fall despite temps in the low 30s, because the TV channels have been full of college football games. And the kids have already gone back to school. So, I hear your Whoopeee! and I'll add a Yippeeeee!
