[QUOTE="Jules 73, post: 2020732, member: 477378"] Hi I was diagnosed almost a year ago and I’m still not coming to terms with this awful illness - my hba1c isn’t coming down at all throughout the year despite being on a good diet and losing 3 and and half stone already! I’m at a loss what to eat as my blood sugars always seem to be high (14-18) I’ve stop self testing as I get so depressed and my doctor said there’s really no need to test anyway as I can’t go into an hypo on the metformin and alogliptin combination I’m on - my parents are both type 2 diabetics but suffer really bad health one has kidney failure and my mum is currently catheterised as her bladder isn’t working properly :( any advice on what to eat to keep my sugars down would be brill, I’ve cut out most carbs and try to stick to two meals a day as I find when I skip meals my bs can come down to around 10! But I know skipping meals is bad for you too [/QUOTE]
