Hello

Hi @MandyEdie and welcome to the forum. I did the DESMOND course when I was first diagnosed and found it useful for a newbie to diabetes. But it does suggest eating carbohydrates with every meal. Carbs turn to sugar in our bodies so aren't good for diabetics. Many of us on this forum find that avoiding or limiting carbohydrates as much as possible, and replacing them with good High Fats, has reduced our blood sugar levels.
Have a read round the threads and ask any questions you want, the people on here are friendly and supportive.

@Galja I think @MandyEdie is referring to the diabetes.co.uk App.

@MandyEdie - Hello and Welcome to the Forum. Don't be afraid to ask any questions - we are all friendly and supportive to one another on this forum.

Hello and welcome pleased you have found the course helpful and that you want to take your diabetes in hand

Hi and welcome. I agree with the other poster about carbs. If your Desmond course suggested having lots of carbs then I'm afraid that would be bad advice. Hopefully your trainers were up-to-date on the subject of diet. BTW fats are OK.
