Newbie to the site

Posted on October 12, 2011 at 6:06am 3 Comments

I found this site from my Diabetic Living magazine and I thought it would be helpful to join. I've been controlling my diabetes with food and exercise. the health Nurse was happy with my last BG readings and said I didn't need to take them as often now. But I think I should again as it helps me to be good, though I stick to the foods that I have been eating when my last A1C reading was 5.8
