What do you mean carby

Your food today had a lot of carbohydrates, it was carby.

Carbs are the stuff that makes your blood sugar go up.

 

[julieclarke]

I understand it

Are you back home & testing your bloods with a finger prick now? All the things you are eating aren’t very good foods for someone with diabetes.

 

[julieclarke]

Yes I tested my blood sugar levels it'was 8.0

Yes I tested my blood sugar levels it'was 8.0

2 hours after every meal your blood sugar was 8 every time? We’re these finger prick tests?

hi @julieclarke do you want our help to try and improve your diet, or are you happy eating high carb foods?

You have been given lots of information on reducing high carbohydrate foods, but from your posts it seems that you are still eating those high carbohydrate foods.

Some people choose the same sort of food you have, but the possible result is that they will need to take more medication as their diabetes progresses.

This information may help you if you do want to use a lower carbohydrate diet.
