[QUOTE="Phoenix55, post: 1246579, member: 242273"] Welcome [USER=330334]@lotuslight[/USER] and yes you are doing the right thing posting here. We help and support each other but understand that what works for one person does not necessarily work for all. To help you find your way through the maze of choices that are opening up to you the advice to get a meter and to keep a food diary is good. It has helped me to find the foods that I can still eat and surprised me with ones that I can only have as an occasional treat. It does not have to be complicated, a basic spreadsheet is sufficient. I also needed to increase my level of activity so I kept a note of that and my feelings (frustration, excitement etc.) and saw how that affected my bg readings. Small adjustments can make a big difference. Find time to read around the forum and no matter how busy you are find time for yourself now, it makes time for other things later. Keep posting and let us know how you are getting on. [/QUOTE]
