[QUOTE="Art Of Flowers, post: 1423069, member: 375067"] Hi Jen. When I was diagnosed my blood glucose level was 13. I checked the labels on all the foods I was eating and cut out all the ones with lots of sugar. When I saw the diabetes nurse a few weeks later my blood sugar levels were 9.8. After this I was given a meter and started to test regularly. I began to cut out carbohydrates as they raise blood sugars very quickly. I stopped eating breakfast cereals, potatoes, bread, rice and pasta. I also stopped drinking fruit juice. Some fruit is high in sugar, such as grapes bananas, so give them a miss. Strawberries and blueberries are not so bad. You can eat more fat in your food such as cheese, cream, full fat yoghurt, avocados and nuts. Adopting a Low a Carb High Fat diet has allowed my fasting blood sugars to drop to under 7 and lose a lot of weight. [/QUOTE]
