GlucoNavii has arrived.

Probably helped but the meal was pretty low carb too so would probably have only had a minimal rise anyway.
Next time you have the same meal maybe don't go for the walk and see what happens?



The workout could have had an impact so probably worth ditching that test and next time do a before and after.

Too true kind of get a buzz out of it aswell must be the competitive side in me trying to get it as close to the 4 mark as possible lol

It's gonna get expensive fast though at 6 tests a day.. might try 2 meals a day to spare some test strips.

Hi @fendertele .

Doing great.

I have same meter.

For me, it's.
Insert strip.
Jab finger.
And move strip in meter to blob of blood.

As said its more, place strip at side of blob, let it ride up strip.

Having used codefree, I find the naavii needs much less blood, so once you get the hang of it,
it's not unknown, but it rarely gives the error code.

All your testing now, while it's still so early on in Your journey,

is just piecing together YOUR personal detective story, about what foods & how much of them, YOU can manage successfully

I think you can see that a cooked breakfast is fast becoming a "Safe" meal for you

And that's what all the testing leads to.

A range of foods & combinations that can guide you to foods/meals in that "safe" range.

Once you gather enough information, I think like I did, you might test less often

So see the cost at the moment, as higher but worth it for so much details.

I tested every meal at first, but as my knowledge & confidence grew, I reduced the testing

Now it's just every morning ( FBG.)
And Meals I'm not sure of..

(Any cooking with ingredients I haven't normally used or if eating out... rare these days of lockdown)

And occasionally when I fancy checking just to ensure nothings changed

Another who did change lancets after each jab, but now leave Lancet and change every few months or when it begins hurting more when jabbing.

Good luck moving forward.
I think you very much Got This
 
Great to read about a newly diagnosed being so proactive.
You're in the right place.

Please keep reporting, when you're really brave go for a CGM, that's the motherload of info

Haha..I so get that

However, it's like Golf, it's only yourself you really got to beat to improve
