No I noticed the gravy was a bad idea just before I poured it on, was a little upset about not being able to have any lol

I’ve just been watching TV and few Jobs about the house, nothing strenuous I went out for my exercise this morning

Yeah I’ve done it 3 times with different fingers, maybe the first test wasn’t accurate because I only did that once and was happy with it so didn’t question it

Today I’ve had lamb with some vegetables broccoli carrots and cauliflower I’ve been drinking water and that’s taken me from 5.6 right up to 12.5 after 2hrs

I’m hardly eating carbs as most people are recommending and testing before and 2hrs after eating so 3 days in a row I’ve been before eating 5.0 to 6.0 and 2hrs after I’m at 12.0 to 12.5 I just don’t know where I’m going wrong. Please help!

Yes I’ll definitely get one and test because different foods will have a different effect so worth knowing what foods cause the biggest problem, yeah it just makes sense. I’ll have a look at that other thread also

Well it was the diabetic nurse that said I need to eat more meals but didn’t say what I should be eating or what I needing to restrict the consumption of in my diet she just said everything in moderation, I’m also confused as to why I’ve not been told to test my blood sugar like my friend does...
