Re: Type 2's : What was your fasting blood glucose in a morn 6.1, just after a *yawn*

Why test after 1 hour? I haven't even read a cereal pack, but i would imagine there is a certain amount of sugar in it... injection of energy and so on... not a expert on the subject, but any breakfast cereal is a no no on my behalf.

Django, you probably do have carbs with most meals, just small amounts. I'm a relative noob to T2, as I was only diagnosed the end of July this year. I spent the best part of a month testing levels 6 times a day, that cost me a few shilling, but I have a really good understanding of what...

Thanks for the welcomes.... Managed to keep my carbs below 100 the last 2 days, and my reading lat night was 7.4 and this morning was 7.2. Think I spent an extra hour shopping last night reading all the labels, needless to say there was no crisps bought :(

Hi All Got diagnosed just over 7 days ago now. I was going in for my annual BP check and I decided to fast the night before. I had been feeling really tired and drinking a lot more of an evening, so I asked the nurse to do a full check on my blood whilst checking my usual stuff. First check...
