[QUOTE="Glennis67, post: 1862754, member: 478143"] There is hope, and I’ve found this forum is absolutely brilliant. I was diagnosed three months ago at 48.6, so only just diabetic type 2 - I appreciate being caught so early. I’ve stuck to Carb counting, around 60g-90g a day which is easy to get used to. My reading is now 40 so “normal” and lower than pre-diabetic. It can be done. Concentrate on the vegetables, cutting out the rubbish and don’t try to substitute sweet stuff with chemicals. I’ve found that if I have two types of veg in every meal and make that take up half the plate, I don’t have to worry too much what I have as the protein. I limit the potatoes to two small new potatoes. Think of sugar as toxic in your blood, and vegetables as the good guys. [/QUOTE]
