Thankyou for your response. My cholesterol was also up (simultaneously increased along with my HbA1c) so I’ve cut out butter, and went onto skimmed milk. I don’t eat much red meat at all. Stick to fish and chicken. I use a fair bit of olive oil and eat walnuts and there are certain...

I’m prediabetic (HbA1c reading of 47) since 25th April. I’ve gone all out on daily carbs of between 50 to 70g, no sugar, cut down on fats. I’ve lost 2.5kg and am already getting really good blood glucose readings before and after meals after 2.5 weeks. My question is: I seem to be...

Oh I see…I understand. This makes me feel better now, so I will continue on with my Contour Plus. Thankyou all so much for your help.

Hi, I have the Contour Plus monitor which I thought was good, but I took a blood test 2 hours after my main meal which was 6.4. Thinking it was a bit low for me, I re took it one minute later and got a reading of 7.1. Now I’m wondering if I should get a much more accurate little meter...

Thankyou so much. I’ve taken note and will follow your advice.

Thankyou all very much for your tips and help

Hallo! I am going to make my own bread in a machine. I can’t have ‘hard bits’ as in whole wheat. I would like to know which flours to use for a low carb bread. I have made almond bread which is nice but would prefer something that tastes a little more like normal bread if...

Good morning, I tried typing in my heading topic from the Internet forum which read ‘Pre-D eating before bed snack options’ and nothing came up and then I tried typing in my forum name which is carole12 and nothing came up....both in the search option on the app. Maybe I’ve missed something...

I can’t link this app to my replies on the Internet forum
