For several years I have been attempting to optimise my diabetes management. I often call out dietary claims, as to what is being eaten and what are the glucose responses are, so I am posting a cross sectional snapshot of where I am at, as this is a journey. This post covers, food, cgm results...

Hi there
I'm hoping someone could help me as I am beyond confused right now!
Just to give you a bit of background:
I was diagnosed as type 1 9 years ago at the age of 19. I've muddled through for the last 8 years but have really focused on getting tighter control of my bloods in the last year...
Results are in, I've literally just left the doctors office with a hba1c result of 58 down from 103 April 2019. I actually cried, I'm so happy. I know I still have a way to go but I am shocked, I really wasn't expecting that.
Thankyou to everyone for support/help/advice etc. Hope everyone is well!
so I ha e been testing my blood sugar after every meal (1, 2 and 3hrs)
I just checked for the 2 hrs post meal and said 6.9, and I thought I’d that low or not for after a meal, so I did another test on different finger and it said 7.9. So then I checked 2 more times on different fingers and got...
I had my first review of my bloods after being diagnosed in early September. I was at 103 but now I'm at 66! Not where it needs to be but I'm very happy with where I'm at so far.
I've been playing a bit fast and lose with my diet, mostly just cutting down on carbs, and I had a horrid time with...
I just had a meeting with my GP (General Practitioner) about the results of my last blood test.
The doctor confirmed that my HBA1c has gone up from 38 to 39. This was due to the fact that he suggested way back in February to have 2-3 fruits daily in my diet.
I told him afterwards that I should...
So following the saga of my foot check/ reduced strip allocation I went in today to see if blood results were back.
They are. But receptionist won't tell me or let me have a print out. I point out that they gave me one last year and it helps me keep track. She says she will have to ask the...

I just got my results for my second test and my hands are shaking - I didn't know if I should laugh or cry - so I did both.
Hba1c 47
fasting blood glucose 6.4 mmol/l
Cholesterol 5.7
HDL 1.42
LDL 3.4
Triglyceride 2
That is in 80 days of eating low carb.
Hi,
Just had my blood results after 3-4 months on the LCHF diet and I'm a bit confused. My HbA1c was 6.1 which translates to an average of 109 mg/dl (a bit higher actually than last time at 6.0). However my fasting glucose count was way higher at 131mg/dl. This was taken at 8.30am. The last...
