[QUOTE="Cinderella56, post: 1478314, member: 405160"] Hi I asked the DSN if I could test .. she said No it would only upset you??? So I took no notice ( always liked to be a rebel) and got the SD code free and have found out what I can and cant eat through testing after meals and my blood sugars are not too bad at all most of the time so am hoping this will be reflected in the hba1c I have to have on Monday. As for the EATWELL plate.. low fat lots of carbs.. I don't think so! When I tried to say to the dietician that a lot of carbs spiked my blood sugars she said what do you mean spiked.. so I said goes up too high ( she had said at the beginning of the lecture that optimal blood sugars were between 4 and 8 after meals) she then said everyones blood sugar goes up after meals we don't worry unless its over 12. WHAT? So glad I found this forum and the other Uk forum and Gretchen Becker and David Cavans books.. I am educating myself. [/QUOTE]
