Back again, after some years away. I had a quick look for previous posts but have forgotten my username.

I totally lost control of my diet after a time of prolonged stress, so here I am admitting I need company from those with more experience and knowledge than I had.

This mornings fasting sugar level was 7.5 but a week ago it was 10.9.

Thanks Steve, I'm so relieved to hear about other people turning things around through diet and exercise who have had similar numbers.

Hi Clearly, Welcome back to the forum, one thing you can be sure of is a warm welcome and plenty of company

I do hope your stress is lowering now so hopefully your BG levels will lower as well. Don't beat yourself up about the past though as it's the present and the future that is more important and now you are talking to fellow diabetics again you will get there.

Looking forward to reading more of your posts and getting to know you a little.
 

Welcome back!
I have had a horribly stressful year and am trying to get back on track too. Like you, I need company on this repeat attempt.
 
Hi @valann, thanks for your reply. I'm so glad to meet others here trying to manage this journey.

With regard to stress, I've been learning a couple of relaxation techniques so that's been helping a little. Thanks for encouraging me .

You are most welcome Clearly. I think we're all in need of relaxation techniques in this day and age and really hope they are helping you right now.

One thing for sure is that this diabetic journey is a long one with many bumps in the road, so it's good we have each other to offer a helping hand when needed.
