[QUOTE="mj14, post: 485364, member: 93391"] Started testing before and after meals about 10 days ago - consistently high first thing in the morning before food (high 9's) and 2 hrs after eating (14 plus). Have started low carb diet, lots of fruit, smaller plate size, spoonful of carb literally (before that would have been main part of meal) no pastry, cakes, sweets, treats, crisps and lost over half a stone!!! Really pleased with myself. Last night tested after dinner and to my surprise I was 6.9, tested this morning first thing and 6.8. I am thrilled that my BS levels have come down. Not sure if this is just a fluke lol but over the moon anyway........ On a less happier note - started Metformin yest 1 x 500mg and eventually building up dose) and so far no horrendous side effects apart from WIND!!!!! Omg I am frightened to get out of the chair. Sorry for bringing the tone down but just wanted to share lol........
