[QUOTE="Robbity, post: 1466456, member: 93179"] I found it simplest when first diagnosed to learn which were high carb/starchy/sugary foods and reduce/avoid them. Doing this before I found the forum and discovered about using a meter to check reaction to different foods gave a big drop in my glucose levels. Buying my meter and starting to eat very low carb (20-25g per day) for a short while helped me lose weight and reduce glucose levels even further. I now try to restrict myself to under 50g carbs a day (usually around 30-40). This keeps my levels in the mid to low pre-diabetic range, and generally very stable, and also allows me to keep to my diet long term (over 3 years) without ever feeling deprived. Robbity [/QUOTE]
