Learn to use your meter. Live by the numbers. FOR ME, anything over 140 is bad because I do not want ANYTHING higher than that as it can cause nueropathy and damage to organs.

Also, FLAXSEED. It has really helped level my glucose.

My dr did not catch my diabetes because my fasting number was 90 and doctors do not consider diabetes until a fasting number reaches 100 which sadly, is too late. By the time most people reach 100 they have been diabetic for awhile, possably a long time.

But regardless what your fasting number is, if you get a reading of 189 after a meal, even a doctor has to admit that is wayyyyy to high.
