Hi. Very new to this. Sorry if in the wrong forum. Not sure what I'm doing yet.
I was diagnosed T2 in mid April after being pre-diabetic last November. Mum died of cancer in March and I'm an emotional binge eater, so couldn't heed the warning. Was given 12 weeks until next test to improve diet and lifestyle. Life is still very difficult without Mum, but have severely cut carbs and I've only had 2 minimal binges. since April,
Today's reading before breakfast at 9.30 (ate chicken salad for dinner at 5 last night) was 9.1. Bit worried and disappointed. Any tips on how to reduce it? I am disabled and unable to walk safely atm.
Thanks
Gina

My higher readings sometimes reflect 48 hours previous. What did you have the day before?
Diet sounds good @JMcB so just stick with it and wait for the results. It obviously took a while for the situation to get to the point of diagnosis so it will take time to become well managed. How is the metformin going? Also, maybe take a look at this thread for ideas https://www.diabetes.co.uk/forum/threads/what-have-you-eaten-today.75781 and adviceBreakfast was 2 eggs with 1tbl heavy cream, 2 slices of prosciutto and 1 tbl mascarpone.
Lunch 1 cup arugula with 2tbl feta and the cap of a red pepper with a tin of sardines in olive oil
Dinner 1 quarter avacado a small burger I cooked in butter plus 2 leafs of cabbage sautéed with the top of one scallion and 2 mushroom caps plus one hard boiled egg
