[QUOTE="RoyG, post: 315482, member: 44425"] Hi Welsh_Kev, Thats an excellent start, I would say you're getting in the swing of it OK, when I first got diagnosed I dropped my Carbs down to around 30g a day, that was back in the beginning of May, since then I have lost a good few lbs, and am now at my near normal weight, It also never took very long before I started seeing some real improvements in my BG readings, seeing the two of them dropping gives you a real impetus to carry on, and also helped me deal with the initial shock of it all. It at least lets you know YOU can make a difference when you want too. I found this site my lifeline in advice, books to read and my food choices and recipes, It soon became less of a life sentence and more of condition that needs to be watched and nurtured, because it does have a nasty tendency to bite back if you take your eye off the ball, whilst I won't say it's all plain sailing it does get easier or it has for me at any rate as the weeks tick by. Just watch your diet, and test away to see your trend, keep up with your exercise, try not to get to stressed about it and learn all you can. Best of Luck. [/QUOTE]
