[QUOTE="Hiitsme, post: 1472753, member: 181310"] Hi [USER=405150]@Seagal75[/USER] and welcome; I will tag [USER=25759]@daisy1[/USER] who will post some helpful info for newcomers. I was diagnosed with an HbA1c of 95 and it is now in the mid 30's so it is possible with a change of diet. When Daisy posts her info try to go through it and you might find the low carb program helpful. It is the carbs that we need to reduce. Well done in getting a meter. I was diagnosed with a fasting reading of 18 and it took me several months to get down to levels I am happy with. My advice would be to write down everything you are eating with quantities and your readings. If you test before a meal and 2 hours after you will see how that food impacted on your blood. I aimed for a rise of less than 2 after 2 hours but that took me some time so don't expect instant results. [/QUOTE]
