[QUOTE="fergus, post: 19803, member: 6150"] Hi Jeenie, Once a day isn't enough I'm afraid, particularly when you're trying to understand how your blood sugars fluctuate throughout the day. You should certainly check first thing in the morning to see how your blood sugars got on through the night. You should also check 2 hours after each meal to see how you respond to the different foods in your diet. A word of warning, be prepared for some nasty surprises if you like things such as breakfast cereals, pasta. Another top tip is to keep a diary of your meals and results at first so that you can see the patterns and learn which foods to restrict or eliminate. This is really valuable information which will help you to achieve non-diabetic blood sugars in future. Remember, just because you are diabetic is no reason you can't have normal blood sugars and a complication free future. Have you been restricted in the nuber of test strips prescribed? Which, if any, medications are you taking? All the best, fergus [/QUOTE]
