[QUOTE="Upya, post: 5098, member: 5461"] Hi there, I have just been diagnosed with type 2 diabetes (2 weeks ago) and I am currently trying to reduce my BG levels using diet alone. I am in the process of trying to see what food/drinks work and what doesn't work for me and I have read several posts where people say that the best way is to try the food and then check your levels. I know this may sound a silly question, but I wanted to check exactly how to do this. Is it a case of checking your levels first before the food/drink and then again afterwards and compare the two?? If so, how long do I need to wait after eating or drinking the items before doing the second test to get a valid result?? Unfortunately although I have been referred to a diabetes diet workshop, I am still waiting for a place and therefore full of questions still. Thanks in advance for any help you can give me.
