[QUOTE="Tophat1900, post: 1673851, member: 362123"] You're not a fool. You're just starting out. You do need to check your blood sugar, I don't know where doctors get the idea you don't from, but it is wrong. The last thing you want is to sit down to a meal not knowing you already have a high blood glucose level or if you are close to a hypo. You just cannot know what they are without testing. Many people with T2 eat to their meter, I did when I did strictly diet controlled. Figuring out what amount of carbs works for you is an individual thing. More then likely Weetbix will probably send your levels through the roof. False hypos are when you experience hypo like symptons, but you are not actually having a hypo. This is a pretty good reason to have a meter. Good luck and welcome! [/QUOTE]
