[QUOTE="JoKalsbeek, post: 2454688, member: 401801"] That's where you're wrong. But you'll find that out for yourself as you go. When I was first diagnosed I was pretty much on my own for months, flailing. And crying buckets. I'd wake up with a wet face. If I'd found this place sooner and trusted in my meter, and knew what the readings meant, it would've been a lot better a lot quicker. But you ARE going to be okay. And there will be a day where food doesn't require a second thought, it'll just be second nature. I have a lot of ailments. And I do mean a LOT. Diabetes is the only one I got under control really quick. I have a say in what I eat, so I have a say in what my blood sugars do. But it doesn't happen overnight, and there's glucose stored in your body still. That'll come out, but it doesn't just vanish into thin air. It takes time. You're doing really well, with your rise between pre and post prandial being less than 2. T[I]hat means your stores will empty, and your blood sugars will normalise.[/I] You already HAVE control. You're just too close to it, and too shocked still from the diagnosis, to see it. You're already getting this right. You are. And you are in absolute control here. Have faith in yourself. And maybe make your own soup from here on in. ;) Hugs, Jo [/QUOTE]
