[QUOTE="hankjam, post: 563157, member: 104954"] Having read a number of the threads on testing it was pretty clear that most people round here recommend it, to know how they respond to what they eat. Diagnosed T2 in March and have gone low carb and increased exercise. Started testing on friday morning and nearly all have been been less than 5.5 mM..... apart from last night dinner, 4.4 before and 8.7 2 hours after, there was wine and pretty carby pizza, which is being recorded and I won't be going back there any time. Today was 5.3 mM first thing, 5.6 mM 2hrs after yoghurt and nuts, 5.5 mM 2 hrs after pork sausages and an egg, 4.5 mM at 19:00 before evening dinner. Dinner was roast chicken, spinach with garlic and goats cheese, salad leaves with olive oil balsamic vig and 1 roast potato.... reading 101 today I tested after an hour, 6.6 mM and 2 hrs 7.1 mM. It's going to take time to track inputs with BG's but are mid 5's through out the day okay or should I be looking for those to be lower? Many thanks Hj [/QUOTE]
