I don't need to test on a daily basis - or weekly - or monthly, even. I don't need medication for diabetes, my Hba1c is just at the top of normal and my blood glucose is usually absolutely normal after eating - over 7 at two hours would be unusual or down to strawberries being in season. and me eating all of the ones I bought in one go - I can resist anything but temptation.
I got here by using an ordinary glucose tester and Dr Atkins New Diet Revolution, aka LCHF, but I am a very standard sort of type two, although I do need to keep to under 40 gm of carbs a day - which I might do even with the fresh strawberries.
Rather than buying a CGM, buy foods which will not raise your glucose levels
