[QUOTE="SueB743, post: 1017448, member: 177694"] Welcome to the forum. Firstly, try not to panic as you have come to the right place. I will tag [USER=25759]@daisy1[/USER] for the new members information for you. There are lots of things you can do such as swapping sugar for sweeteners. If you are carrying excess weight, losing weight can also help bring your blood glucose down as your body doesn't have to work quite as hard to process everything. Many members find reducing carbohydrate beneficial - put in simple terms this breaks down into sugar, less sugar in means better blood sugar levels. There is lots of useful information in the dietary pages on the forum. There is also a new low carb programme which I've decided to sign up to. Please ask any questions you have as someone will always be able to help. It is a lifelong journey rather than a quick fix so things will happen gradually rather than overnight. It's a tough time but once you can accept things it will get easier. If you want to self test many members use an sd code free as the test strips are reasonably priced. This can help you see which foods in particular affect you personally as we all react in our own way [/QUOTE]
