Good Morning, I was diagnosed just before christmas with Type 2 Diabetes. Like many of you I have been told by the nurse not to test, to increase my carbs not to drink concentrated fruit juice. I am now on Metformin twice a day.
I really miss my fruit I know I have to cut down on grapes but now I am having hardly any fruit. Can I have the Innocents fruit drinks - small bottle or carton once a day? My husband says I am kidding myself but I reckon as they are pure fruit one should be ok, what is the opinion of the forum.
I have increased my carbs but only put on weight. I am going to go low carb next week to see what effect that has. I have bought a monitor and purchasing my own strips. How long after each meal should I test myself to see what impact different meals have on my blood sugars?
Thank you for your help.
