[QUOTE="Guzzler, post: 2009820, member: 408573"] You did right to get one. Here's when to test for best results. First thing in the morning on awakening and before you rush around getting ready for the day. Then test before the first bite of food/meal and then again two hours after your first bite. The difference between the two readings should be no more than 2mmol preferably less than that. Keep a record of what you eat and the readings, this will help you decide which foods to cut back on, which foods to cut out and which foods you can have to your heart's content. It is a learning curve not surprisingly. You may find that the stuff that gives the highest rise in levels are bread, pasta, rice and potatoes as well as the obvious culprits like cakes, sweets and crisps. [/QUOTE]
