[QUOTE="zand, post: 1851922, member: 85197"] Yes that's the standard advice from doctors as they don't want to pay for it. You do need a meter as when you have one you are in control of your BG levels because you can test which foods are right for you, this means that you don't eat things that set your levels soaring, but also means that you don't miss out something which would be OK for you personally. I think what you are experiencing is 'low carb flu' and yes, that's normal in the early days of low carbing. How much more weight do you need to lose? Have a look at this thread too [URL]https://www.diabetes.co.uk/forum/threads/a-new-low-carb-guide-for-beginners.68695/[/URL] [/QUOTE]
