[QUOTE="Footygirl, post: 2318144, member: 531002"] Hi am two weeks into the keto month challenge To start with I was using few last strips I had to hand. ive dropped a dress size which pleases me, but Doc refuses me strips to support my efforts. I was doing a shorthand of, below 7 in the morning, ideally in the fives. Just attained that when strips ran out. how can I monitor my levels now? I asked for Hb1ac monthly then. No again still three months. Loads of patronising guff about getting my level down to 49 from 58 in five months but no support!!!!!!! I wrote an impassioned logical letter but still no go. Why are they so inflexible? So, how else do I monitor Myself without testing BG? I am getting to grips with portion size and how many net g each meal has. I am veggie so using higher carb veg and CHEESE and eggs. no cravings. Just made cloud bread. Unusual but a bit of keto bulk with keto soup. thanks for any advice/ help. Cant afford to buy strips myself at moment with one thing and another! Take care everyone. Footy Xxx [/QUOTE]
