Scarlett, I think you are right to stick to a diet that works for you, I am sure we are all different, what works for one won't work for everyone.
I ditched sweeteners decades ago and really could not drink sweet tea or coffee now, would just taste like sugar water to me.
My brother has late onset Type 1 diabetes so I don't know if there is a genetic link.
I was very obese when diabetes was diagnosed but many very fat people aren't and never will be.
Jenny, when my diabetes wasn't controlled and I was taking 3 different drugs a day I didn't have a set glucose reading. It's not like standing on the scales to weigh yourself. My readings would fluctuate wildly throughout the day, like everyone with Type 2 diabetes.
Even after I lost 8 stone and was a healthy weight my diabetes was still only controlled by drugs.
I reversed the diabetes by changing what I ate, when I ate and how much I ate.

well I have changed a good bit of things in the two weeks I visited doctor and am delighted to say I've lost 4lbs. I've to go back again on Tuesday to doctor/nurse and hope to lose at least one pound. Hopefully I am on the up.
My goal would be to be able to wear my lovely clothes instead of swamping my body with T shirts and leggings. And of course lower the diabetes reading for Type 2.

one metformin a day - I had been prediabetic for quite a while but now the reading is showing early days of Type 2. In the last two weeks I have given up "bad" things and also I'm feeling great.
But with having an "apron" of fat round the tummy - I'm finding that some muscles are there and I can "pull it in" a little. If that makes sense.

can you tell me what this is about.
when nurse does the reading it is a different reading to the one if you prick your finger at home (device)
which by the way I don't have - just somebody did prick my finger - it can give you a reading like from 4-22 or more (I don't know)
yet the nurse gives you like 40 an upwards - I do think the nurse's reading is more accurate of course. but I generally don't understand the two readings.

Jenny, the reading is exactly the same from a finger prick test which only tells you what your reading is it at that moment.
The reading is different because some meters read in Mmo/l and some read in mg/dl.
Think of it as being like your kitchen scales - the weight can show as either pounds and ounces or grams and kilos but the quantities are exactly the same.
Here is a conversion chart https:/
The hb1Ac shows the average glucose for the previous 3 months so is much more accurate and useful. That needs a proper blood sample that is sent off to the lab, it can't be done with a finger prick test
