[QUOTE="Ian-J, post: 2447748, member: 358739"] Mine was 100 when I was diagnosed in 2016. It was a shock.....and like you I hadn't a clue about what I could eat. If you are like me then you'll realise you don't need to be an expert right from the start, you can start off by learning some very basics and what food types you need to drop/reduce and what to look for on food labels. You don't need to do or learn everything in the first week. I am 5 years in and still learning, partly because I didn't want it to take over my life as such, but I've learned enough to get my HbA1C down to its current 44. The folks on this forum are FANTASTIC, a great resource for whenever you have any questions or issues and whether you are 1-week, 1-year or 10 years in. Ian. [/QUOTE]
