[QUOTE="PenguinMum, post: 1726802, member: 461597"] You are very similar to me, also diagnosed 4 months ago. My fasting levels are starting to improve but it has been very stubborn. I got excellent advice on here to focus on the difference between starting meal and 2 hours later. However I so far havent been able to have breakfast. I tried a slice of cheddar (odd breakfast imo) I tried coffee with cream (dont like cream but thought oh well) and I only have eggs for breakfast occasionally because they often make up a big part of lunch or dinner. None of these things made any difference to my fasting levels. Now I enjoy a cup of tea and one mini oatcake because I feel I ought to have something with my other meds. Dont eat again till lunch. Another piece of excellent advice here was not to fret over fasting levels because if I do everything else right they will slowly improve and there is now a slight improvement (7s rather than 8s). Bit longwinded but I just want to encourage you. It takes longer for some but keep going. Btw I also am resisting meds for this condition. [/QUOTE]
