[QUOTE="Indy51, post: 340076, member: 48386"] Hi and welcome to the forum. I'd also add that it's best to also take a BG reading before you eat, otherwise you don't get a "before and after" picture of what the amount of carbs you're eating is doing to your BG. I found the following site very helpful for all things related to Type 2 Diabetes, including information about testing and the various medications: [url=http://www.phlaunt.com/diabetes/index.php]http://www.phlaunt.com/diabetes/index.php[/url] The book is also excellent. Sorry I can't answer re metformin as I have never taken it. The reactions I've read here seem to vary greatly from person to person. If you want a very basic introduction to low carb, I found the following site very helpful: [url=http://www.dietdoctor.com/lchf]http://www.dietdoctor.com/lchf[/url] Best wishes - you sound like you're starting your "journey" with a very positive mindset :clap: [/QUOTE]
