Randy replied to Fayola89's discussion 'NewBeee'"Welcome. You are in a very good place to accomplish your goals. It is overwhelming at first. There is so much to learn about D and how to manage it. Then you must figure out how all of this works for you. TuD has helped me learn all of this very…"
bobnominous replied to Fayola89's discussion 'NewBeee'"Lowering BG is critical to helping your feet, your doctor has that part right at least. There seems to be some debate on the rate of lowering though. If you decrease too fast, it may cause problems, especially feet and eyes. You mention LADA so I am…"

Zoe replied to Fayola89's discussion 'NewBeee'"Welcome Fayola! We're all different in terms of diet, so there's no one way to go. But in general, the idea is to "eat to your meter". In other words eat a meal, test 2 hours later and see how you do. If you spike beyond your…"
