[QUOTE="Mazzer, post: 573031, member: 98181"] Hi Ed and welcome to the Forum. Great advice from Bluetit and Pixie, I didn't have any dietary advice from my gp or dn on diagnosis and I am so glad I didn't because I had to do my own research and ended up joining this forum which is the best thing I have ever done. The NHS have got is so, wrong regarding advice on diet. Carbohydrates are poison to diabetics, follow the advice on this forum and learn as much as you can and you won't go far wrong. We are all different, and the only way to find your own level is to test before and 2 hours after meals. Ask as many questions as you like, there is no such thing as a daft question on here and there are a lot of very knowledgeable people on here to help you. I was scared in the beginning, I think we all are, it is a lot to get your head round and very confusing, but it will get easier so don't worry just take small steps and don't try to take it alll in at once. Good luck and take care. Marilyn [/QUOTE]
