[QUOTE="ianf0ster, post: 2121377, member: 506169"] Hi Newby1, Congratulations on finding this forum. There are lots of vested interests you don't like what we say in here. Yes you should get a BG meter but the key thing is the cheapness (or otherwise) of the test strips for it. The most popular ones at least for those of us in the UK seem to be the Code Free and the Tee2+, both of which have cheap strips - approx. 1/10 th the price of the more expensive ones. And to 'sort out your lifestyle' will need to do lots of pre-meal and post-meal BG tests so that you know what works for you and what doesn't. Myself, I am on a 'Low Carb High Fat' lifestyle and use a Tee2+ meter and have tested fairly rarely after the first month, but have still used over 150 test strips in the last 3 months - it is the test strips that ultimately cost the money!
