[QUOTE="millie_uk, post: 279421, member: 44850"] Todays fasting reading was 7.9 and it's been only 19 days. Breakfast today was a 2 egg omlette with one slice of ham, some red pepper and one of those little individually wrapped pieces of mild cheddar. After 2 hours bg was 9.9 which went down to 8 after 4 hours, so no double figures today yet. Lunch was 2 slices of bacon, almonds, walnuts, pumpkin seeds and half a grapefruit so will see after 2 hours what the bg is. I threw the cherries in the bin after twice trying them and getting readings of over 15. I am very tired today and yesterday but really unsure of what carbs to try. Might try the Bergen soya and linseed bread again but bg was 12.7 after one slice with my eggs. I know there will be a lot of trial and error along the way but I am so pleased that my bg is coming down so quickly through changing the diet and not following the advice at the clinic which was keeping it well into double figures all the time but still much lower than it was and the thrush and urine infections disappeared quickly and my insect bite of 8 months is also healed. I dread to think how high my sugars were and for how long. This is a great website and forum. Cheers to all who replied. [/QUOTE]
