Thanks

Great success there. I hope I’m where you are sooner rather than later.

I know I’ve only just got going on taking my diet more seriously. I’ve started cutting carbs over the week but my FBG in a morning varies around 10 -12. I know it needs to be lower. Does having a beer before bed cause this or will it just take time to start dropping lower. Thanks

Thank you for your thoughts on Fruit. A big lesson learned on here for me. At my last diabetic review the nurse asked what my basic diet was and she went through some foods to eat and still said fresh fruit. I’m glad Ive found this site and forum as it seems to be finally putting me on...

Thank you. So misleading that GP surgery nurses give you leaflets to eat more fresh fruit.

Yes. My readings are actually higher during the week when I have the fruit.

Thank you for all your interesting thoughts on eating Fruit. This may be my biggest problem. So instead of fruit , what is a good alternative to taking fruit to work. ?

Hi. I have just been through my records and I did make a mistake. My highest peak was actually 118 not 188 then dropped to below 100. It’s currently 101.

Thank you

I just know I should be able to help myself before taking insulin prescription

Normally I would have toast or crumpet x 2 for breakfast. 2 ham cobs for lunch break at work together with 2 items of fruit. Normally an healthy ish gusto meal at tea time. 2 bottles of beer and maybe just maybe a chocolate buiscuit around 9pm. At weekend. A bacon or sausage cob for...
