When I was diagnosed with T2 and a number of 54, I immediately worked on my diet and was at 48 next time I was tested. So even though I have really struggled with food lately,, I didn't think for a moment it had got this bad, and because I have a number of health issues, it isn't easy to figure out which is causing what.Anyway, knowledge is power. I am researching, changing my shopping to minimise temptation and already restricting carbs intake by over half. Got back to weighing everything again. It is surprising the difference when you just eyeball portions.I will take your info about glucose meters on board too. I think that's a great idea. It is frustrating when you don't have information immediately to hand, and I like to be able to see what is going on. I feel that the more informed I am the more effective I can be while still enjoying my food. Luckily I love veg. <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite1" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":)" /></blockquote>
