@Irishmist66, I buy the Lindahls Kvarg yogurts which they do in several flavours. They're around £1 each, but some supermarkets usually have them on offer! They're around 5g carb each pot and quite filling too!

I am okay thank you! In the same position unfortunately... And that's with low carb diet! Probably less than 20/30g a day. Still go to bed on 5/6 and wake up around 7-9 everyday ... Very deflating!

Well done! It's cool that you're nearly the same age as me, I tend not to see many people on here around my age who aren't type 1. Pleased to meet you

Sending lots of love, positive vibes and hugs to you xxx

Hi everyone, Me again talking about my stubborn Dawn phenomenon... A bit of context: I was diagnosed with diabetes of some description in January whilst I was pregnant with a hba1c of 78, treated insulin- hba1c of 36, then only with metformin and then insulin again towards the end. Had emergency...

Horrible morning spikes upon waking! I'd love to have the figures lots of you get first thing

@MarkMunday I have seen you advising people on posts about fasting insulin and cpeptide and wondered if you could offer any insight into my results please.

Thank you! Yes they did indeed tell us that, including the flipping wholegrains... I wish! You take care too!

Thank you for being so kind! I used to eat so many carbs too! I loved them! Little did I know ay...

Thank you for your suggestion! I'll have a look!

Thank you for being so kind and supportive!

Thank you!

Yes I think so too... I have spoken to the dietician and it's agreed, got to up the exercise even more to shift more weight and hopefully help combat insulin resistance... I'm 5ft8, size 9 feet and have managed to get from 96kg at the start of pregnancy to 88kg post pregnancy. One of the only...

Hi there, I wondered if anyone could help me with some books that are good to read please? I have 'Think Like a Pancreas' and I'm going to order Dr Fung 'The Diabetes Code'. I'd like to learn more as I've only been diagnosed since January this year! Currently trying LCHF but want to get my...

Thank you!

Hi everyone, So I'm feeling a bit at my wits end with my blood sugars lately, despite having my hba1c being 47, two less than last time. I'm not satisfied... I've just phoned the DSN to try and voice my concerns and I get told I'm doing fine and there are no concerns. The consultant says the...

Thank you, you're very kind it's been a difficult year, back in January when I was pregnant and just being diagnosed, particularly as probable type 1, it was very scary. It's such a complex subject! I try and limit my carb intake a lot, just can't get rid of that stubborn morning spike.

I understand what you mean! I'm always here to talk about anything if you want a diabetic buddy! I've reduced my carb intake massively too, how is your hba1c?

Thank you everyone! I guess I just need to try and embrace that it's part of who I am now. 27 with type two diabetes seems scary.
