Thank you ..

Hi Lakeslover Thank you for replying, I understood wholemeal was better than white bread, not perfect but better. So far we've done well looking at alternative options, but I'm sure over time we'll get better at it. Thank you

We have changed from 50/50 bread, to wholemeal. We understand whatever you eat will change our BG readings. But I was surprised how much it went up, we also have looked at low fat Cheese, now that is a minefield. Looking at sites, we are changing our food options, so over time it should be...

Hi David's I've only been a member for a few days, and I've learnt a few things already. I had an appointment at the Doctors this morning, to tell you the truth it was a little disappointing. I told him I brought a BG monitor, and his reply was you didn't need to do that. Then he proceeded to...

Thank you .. I've learnt a lot since I've been on here .. ❤️

Good morning Pipp I'm off to see the Doctor this morning, so I'll know more what I have to do. But as I've said, we have made changes to our Lifestyle, changed our diet. The monitor readings are mainly good, but there has been a few readings that have been a little strange. We had a wholemeal...

Morning grant Thank you for replying. I've spent the the last few days taking readings, checking Google, and it's opened our eyes what a minefield it is trying to keep your BG under control. The sugar in pie fillings is mind-blowing, I've been making food for a few years now. I will start...

Hi Jaylee No I am doing readings for myself, and my Wife is doing tests to check her BG. We have separate sheets, so I have a true reflection of how I'm doing. My readings are looking ok, but there was one spike in the readings, but reading other posts this does happen. Sorry I didn't write it...

Hi JayLee Thank you for your reply I've got a lot to learn, the readings are erratic. But I understand it can take months to get them under control. But we're going to look at living a healthier lifestyle. Peter
