Sorry to hear that you are getting frustrated.... The problem is that no 2 days are the same, particularly for a newly DX'd diabetic... Better to just go with it now; you will be more stable when your diabetes is better controlled.
Myself, to control my D I have cut or reduced all carb sources such as bread, rice, pasta, cereals & starchy vegetables, replacing them with green leafy vegetables. It has made a huge difference in terms of the quality of my overall diet & BG control.
