[QUOTE="Bluetit1802, post: 1183067, member: 94045"] I agree, forget your fasting BG levels. There are too many factors involved over which we have little control. Concentrate more on your day time levels after food. For a week or two test every meal before you eat and 2 hours after first bite. Keep a food diary including portion sizes and record your levels alongside. You will soon see which foods are causing your levels to rise and will be able to tweak that meal by reducing the amount of carbs - either eliminating or seriously reducing portion sizes. Diet is the key to control, and unless you find a suitable way of eating you won't gain control. Testing as I suggested will help you. Bread of any colour, rice, pasta, cereals, potatoes and things made with flour are the worst culprits and need attention - by testing. Get the diet right and hopefully your general levels throughout the day will come down. Once that has happened, your morning FBG should start to improve. [/QUOTE]
