Hi and this is my first post here!
I was dx in 1997 and probably had T2 Diabetes maybe 7 years prior.

I take 40mg Gliclazide and 500mg Metformin daily.

I go to the gym once a week but sometimes miss a week especially when if I'm gardening.

I go on a long walk once a week which is usually around 20 miles.

I go on my exercise bike most days but I take the odd day off physical exercise including walking now and then.

It has been a bit of a rollercoaster journey (self imposed) ranging from tight control and then degenerating and then improving but now am taking my diabetes management more seriously. So seriously that I'm spending large amounts of money on CGM.

There's quite a bit of data on the Dexcom ap and whilst I have basic knowledge of stats I want to learn more to use that data to effectively manage the blood glucose.

Anyone got any resources that help with this?

Just editing this and realise it's in the wrong place. Oops!
