[QUOTE="azure, post: 1275134, member: 39639"] I'm a Type 1 and on insulin, but I know many Type 2s here test very regularly to keep an eye on their sugars. It sounds like possibly the strain of diabetes has made you give up a bit after your good start? It's hard to make sudden changes so I suggest tiny steps. First of all, get back to testing and see what the chocolate and cake is doing to your blood sugar. Then that might be motivation to reduce the amount of sugary food - or cut it out all at once, if that would be easier and if you find it addictive. Setting up a routine of testing will help. Make it second nature. It only takes seconds, and the information it provides is invaluable. I know it's hard taking back control, but do it for the sake of your health, and to get your life back. Being so tired must make you feel rubbish. [/QUOTE]
