Having completely out of the blue been given an HbA1c level of 83, 10 weeks ago, it's taken me some time to come to terms with the diagnosis. Confusion around diet and GI and carbs, exercise and drink have taken all of my energy. I was a BMI of 25.4 I've got that down to 23.9 just by cutting out most of the alcohol and white bread along with portion control. My questions are around fruit, what can I eat and size of, but more pressingly should I be looking at the carbohydrate value or the sugar level on food packaging..
