[QUOTE="TriciaWs, post: 2340595, member: 475901"] If you are going to control your T2 by diet then unless you are lucky you will either your cut out all the carbs OR you use a meter, and test before and after every meal until you know what you can eat. I tested every meal at first, then I tested before and after any new food or new combination of foods - now I usually only test once a week to keep an eye on it unless I find a new food I want to try or I want to raise my carb limit a little. Testing just twice a day will not let you know what you can safely eat while trying to get into remission or reduce the dosage of drugs - unfortunately very few nurses or GPs have training on this, most still think T2 is a progressive disease and their advice means they won't see many, if any, patients get into remission.
