[QUOTE="ianf0ster, post: 2513464, member: 506169"] Good Blood Glucose meters for testing how you react to meals are ones with cheaper test strips because we Type 2's need to do a lot of testing before we figure out how much of a food we can handle with which other foods and at which times of day. Some of us are less able to handle carbohydrates in the morning than in the evening for example. Some are able to handle carbs when consumed with fat much better, where for others doing that just makes them fat! We are a varied bunch and so specific higher carb foods that are OK for one person may not be OK for another. Thus it takes lots of testing until we know the most suitable foods for our specific bodies. The 2 BG meters with relatively cheap test strips most used on this forum are: SD Gluco Navii Spirit TEE2 [/QUOTE]
