[QUOTE="ViolaterUK, post: 2287874, member: 527716"] Thank you all for your responses and words of wisdom. I can see I have a lot to read through. I ordered my meter today, I went with the Tee2 one which was suggested about. I don't know much about the monitors (yet) but thought this was a good starting point for me. I'm so thankful I found the forum, found accidentally but it's been a happy accident. I'm going to spend the next couple of days reading through all the material, there is so much and I don't want to just gloss over it when I can see from peoples signatures such great results. I told my wife I joined the forum and whilst I didn't go into detail on what I posted, I told her I've had lots of great responses. She already knew I had to reduce the sugar intake but we didn't know about carbs. She said earlier we can sit and plan (meals/shopping) tonight to reduce/cut out the main ones and then once I have a better understanding of how my body reacts to foods and read all the material provided we can plan our food well in advance. She's just as happy (well I am the cook so what I make she has to eat haha) but we both want to lose weight and I think this type of eating/prep will help us both. Again, thank you all for the response - I will keep asking questions or querying anything I don't understand. Paul [/QUOTE]
