[QUOTE="drakman, post: 515167, member: 90386"] I struggled to accept it and went a bit OTT avoiding sugar, my levels rose to in the 9s, I started to re-introduce sugar and eat a careful but reasonably normal diet and it stabilized for several years in the low 6s. Last October it went haywire and I went off the scale in the 30s, this caused a bit of panic as I was in hospital for something else, now I take 2 different tablets and consider hitting 7 to be good, my sugar vary between 3.7 and 11 daily, I avoid simple sugars, and some foods have high sugar but I am told it is a high glycemic load and does not seem to be a problem, these are cereals which I eat dry instead of sweets and snacks as they are more filling and lower fat, I did go OTT again and it took about 4 months to get used to it all again, now it is about balancing amounts throughout the day and keeping my overall calorie intake at a healthy level [/QUOTE]
