Please can I get some help and advice on what to eat. I absolutely love carbs, haven't got a clue on how to count carbs either. I know my levels have gone up lately as I've been feeling quite tired, and aching. I have until Dec for my next round of bloods... Do you think with changing my eating plan I could bring them down by then? Thanks
 
Do you test after meals @Lumpipdip ? That test will answer what meals suit you. Every little improvement counts. Think of your journey as lots of tiny steps rather than one daunting massive one.
 
No I've not been testing after meals. Maybe I will start that this week. Thanks

It will give you really helpful information. Test before you eat, then again two hours after the start time of your meal 🙂

This link may give you some ideas for changing your eating in the hope it can improve your blood glucose level. https://lowcarbfreshwell.co.uk/
 
Out of curiosity what do you eat? What was today's breakfast lunch and dinner. Any snacks. What are your typical meals. What sort of stuff do you enjoy.
