Sorry I don’t understand. managing to still eat fruit and keep to 100g of carbs per day or is the fruit "extra".
Hmm are you managing to still eat fruit and keep to 100g of carbs per day or is the fruit "extra".
For me at your early stage that would have been too many carbs and it looks like for you it may be too.
But it is still early days so keep on monitoring and testing and you'll see what you should and shouldn't be eating.
Is the fruit included in your daily limit of 100g of carbs?Sorry I don’t understand. managing to still eat fruit and keep to 100g of carbs per day or is the fruit "extra".
Em no...... evidently now I have no idea what I’m doing. Never considered fruit carbs.Is the fruit included in your daily limit of 100g of carbs?
Thank you. I was thinking along the lines of pasta and potato’s. Duh!!!! As homer would say!Fruit has fructose in it, fructose is a sugar and all sugars are carbohydrates. I would advise that you cut out all fruit for a few weeks to improve your blood glucose levels. You could then test a little fruit to see how are react to it.
We are all on a learning curve and it can be confusing at first.Thank you. I was thinking along the lines of pasta and potato’s. Duh!!!! As homer would say!
The only carb-free foods are fish, flesh, fowl and fat. And among the fish, even sardines contain a few carbs. You might find this site useful:Thank you. I was thinking along the lines of pasta and potato’s. Duh!!!! As homer would say!
They are bad too... below ground veg can be quite high carb too.. you really have to start checking food labels (on the back not the stupid traffic light things) then you'll soon get a handle on the carb content of foods.Thank you.

Hi again. As you have some excess weight it is less likely you are T1 with the danger of having high BS and possibly ketones (due to fat burning). I would ensure you have a low carb diet. Yes, Gliclazide can cause hypos so the dose needs to kept as low as possible consistent with doing the job. The key for the GP is what your HBa1C measure is. Once you are over 7% in old money,the GP ought to be taking further action.
