hello terrie,since i had the meter,i have been experimenting to find out what foods do to my system.I test myself approx 6 to 8 times a day before and after food,also before and after exercise.I plan to cut down with the testing as i have found the culprits.My readings today have all been approx 5.5.
I do not mean to offend,but i will say the same to you,as i do my doctor,"if my readings are normal all the time,why do i need insulin?".
My intake today was breakfast[mixed veg soup],lunch[large cheese salad],dinner[pork chops/mixed veg/chips].Either i have been misdiagnosed,or my strict monitoring is working.For me diabetes is a bad reaction to certain foodstuffs.If i cut them out of my diet alltogether,i am healthy.
