[QUOTE="ringi, post: 1651273, member: 410240"] I brought my AC1 down from over 100 to the low 50s within two months by copying what people do on this site, and it was not that hard. (My BG was 33 on the first test, it is now mostly under 6.) This is one of the first videos I watched before finding this site and it greatly helped me [MEDIA=youtube]da1vvigy5tQ[/MEDIA] Firstly test before a meal and 2hr after you have eaten the meal, then ignore the numbers and just look at the change. A reading of 20 before a meal and 22 after the mail shows you have chosen the meal well, but a reading of 4 before the mail and 7 after the mail, shows it was a bad choice of mail. You are aiming for no meal to increase your BG by more than 2. These two links give some meal ideals [URL]https://www.ditchthecarbs.com/low-carb-vegetarian-meals/[/URL] [URL]https://www.dietdoctor.com/low-carb/recipes/vegetarian[/URL] Eggs are your best friend along with olives, avocado and most nuts, but peanuts are not true nuts and do put BG up. [USER=25759]@daisy1[/USER] will soon belong to explain about carbs to you. [/QUOTE]
