[QUOTE="rowlyc, post: 2200773, member: 518846"] Hi Dave, I am fairly newly diagnosed too, 06/12/19. And I am still very much trying to find my new normal. It's the strangest disease ever, everytime I speak to people with it or with children with it, I learn something else which dumbfounds me! I am currently trying to keep as low carb as possible, I find it keeps me from spiking high or going too low (but everyone's different). However, when exercising I eat a banana and test regularly, eating further carbs if needs be. There's lots of negatives out there, so be careful joining social media groups. Try to suck in as much information as possible, but try and take it easy too, as I still find on some days it consumes my thinking. At the beginning everyday it consumed my thinking.....so it is getting less....woo! I do think it will benefit me in ways, my diet is a lot healthier now, I am losing weight (which I needed) and I am more focussed on what's important in life and thinking of me first rather than others. Good luck, I hope you are starting to get your head around it and you are feeling better. [/QUOTE]
