And thank you! Hi [emoji2]

So if I'm above 6 that's like a normal reading or just good for a pre diabetic reading?

Mine is usually over 6. What's a good reading? New to this. [emoji52]

Strong lady!! Will take onboard what you've said. Supermarkets not good right now but it was easier the second time [emoji4] once I've got my head around what foods are good, especially snacks I feel it will be easier, hard to resist naughty stuff in the cupboard when your hungry...

I will, I have to. We have to!! I love your positivity and I'm telling myself now that tomorrow is another day and I'm going to take the bad days with the good, still early days. [emoji847][emoji173][emoji4]

I'm finding it tough on a morning. I don't have time to cook breakfast so finding something quick and easy to fill me up is a task. I'm a fussy eater too! I suffer from depression, have done for years and I'm hoping this might get better but so far it's been worse with the diagnosis. Only a week...

@Prem51Thank you so much! Are these a guide for when I take my blood during the day? I was at 6.5 this morning and it seems to lower a bit during the day. Is that ok? x

I do, diagnosed last week at high end pre-diabetes. I've 3 months to get my levels down by diet and like you I've many years of eating to change. First visit to the supermarket I nearly crumbled! Tears many of. I feel tired from cutting carbs and totally low and emotional. Can't decide if that's...

Thank you! x

Hi, I was newly diagnosed last week with prediabetes. My HbA1c came back at 47. I got my sd codefree today, pretty sure i set the meter up properly. Just took a test for the first time and it reads 58. I had a bad day and only ate a wholegrain roll with peanut butter about half past one ( first...

Im so grateful for all your info, felt so low all week and not being at work this morning everything came crashing in. Also hard when you dont have anyone to talk to!! Thank you so much. I feel like a blood sugar monitor will help me not to panic so much with my eating but i cant afford an...

Hi, My name is Tracy, im 54 and newly diagnosed this week with prediabetes. I change my doctor and they did a health check as well as my yearly liver and kidney function blood tests to do with my epilepsy. My blood pressure and cholestrol are pretty much perfect she said but the ha1c was 47...
