[QUOTE="Defren, post: 278787, member: 41817"] I thought perhaps a thread where we could all contribute tips that we have found help us manage our diabetes might be handy. I know many of you will do things I haven't thought of, so if we all add our own little ways, maybe it could become quite a useful resource? My tips. (I am a T2). I always plan my meals at least a day in advance so I know what I am eating, and it's nutritional content before I eat it. If I am unsure of the carb/sugar/calorie content of an item, and my books or web sites don't give it, I log onto my supermarkets, web site and check it there. I always cook meals from scratch, and I also weigh everything. My tip here, a pair of kitchen scales is a must in my kitchen. I drink loads of water every day, it seems to keep my BG under control, and I also exercise as much as possible each day. I don't buy or use any low fat products any more, but have smaller amounts of full calorie/fat items. [/QUOTE]
