(You can do this in your 'Profile' under 'Weight Goal). What I would suggest doing is setting your weight loss goal to lose 1 lb per week. Hope some of this did a great job answering your question! I struggled for years to come to this realization. While there are some general rules to follow, such as cutting back carbs, regular exercise, etc, we each respond just a little differently, which is why its so important to learn what tolerances your body has. In conjunction with food logging, you should be able to get and keep your diet and blood sugar under control.Įveryone who has diabetes reacts to food and exercise in a different way. The reason I recommend more testing, especially at this stage, is because you can learn a lot about how your body reacts to foods if you test before a meal, an hour after a meal, two hours after a meal, etc. You're not going to find a better deal anywhere, unless you can get insurance to cover enough strips to test 8 or more times a day.

Plus the test strips are only around $10/50 strips. I use a ReliOn meter, which is probably the least expensive meter on the market right now and is pretty reliable. I understand that test strips are incredibly expensive, especially when you want to test more than a dr might recommend. Cronometer was great for logging and helping me control my dietary needs.Īs an aside, I would recommend checking your blood sugar more often than not. As a misdiagnosed type 2 (actually I am a type 1), I spent years working on trying to control my blood sugar with diet and actually used Cronometer back in 2016 in an effort to do so. For type 2's, this is probably the best change you can make. Good for you for wanting to take control of your blood sugar through nutritional changes. To second share your macro goals (Protein, Carbs, Fats) and we will be more than happy to assist. I noticed when I first signed up that the presets werent exactly to what I had in mind, so I was able to tweak them here and there. Once your profile is set up, which took a little bit of tweaking for me, you'll be off and running.
