Hello so I've been diagnosed with type 2 diabetes fronjust over 15 days now. I maintain between 800-1000 calories in my diet and have not managed much weightloss due to lack of time for exercise but I have a whole routine scheduled to start in a week's time. Today my fasting blood glucose was high - 7.5 on waking up but I ate a regular meal last night and it was 4.5 before going to bed. 2 hours post breakfast it was 10.1 and I was having sedentary day so I decided to go for a 30 min walk. I came back and it's now down to 3.2. I've eaten a half a slice of bread to fix it and it came to 3.5 so I had a small coffee with almond milk and sugar and it's just touched 4. I've never realised but the feeling of a hypo is something I've realised I feel during the night sometimes and sometimes at work. My first meeting with my diabetes nurse was yesterday and she said to only test a random and before bed time and if the before bed was less than 4.5 then to eat 2 biscuits and go to sleep.
I'm a bit confused about how to regulate this. Any advice will be appreciated
