Hi and welcome to the forum. You will get lots of help and advice, if needed, from this great site. Perhaps you could tell us a little about how you were diagnosed, your HbA1c results if you know them just so we know where you are on the diabetes scale. Are you on any medication? We have all been where you are at present so are very happy to help with any questions, big or small that you may have. Sue x

Hello @Sproom

Welcome to the forum!

Hope you are adapting to your diagnosis - it can come as a real shock and takes some getting used to.

If you’ve not found it already, many new members here find Maggie Davey’s letter a useful overview of T2 diabetes

And AlanS’s ‘test review adjust’ a simple, methodical way of improving blood glucose outcomes around food and understanding how different carbohydrates affect each of us individually.
