Welcome to the Forum! :)

Read through the first three threads in the Type 2 Section, when you get a chance, if you have not already done so. These threads will most-likely help you a lot. Most of your questions are answered there. Self education is one of the keys to successful management of your diabetes, along with a healthy / sensible diet and exercise. Basically, diabetes requires a life-style change for the better. Good luck with your control and management.

What is a good app to count carps ?

Look here.

Don't worry. You may feel overwhelmed right now but soon you won't need an app to determine the amount of carbs in your meal. I was diagnosed 2 yrs ago (latent onset juvenile DM) and focused on learning how to count carbs. I found that I remember a lot. I also make sure I check my sugars 4-6x a day. All of my a1c's have been 6 or lower since. Learn to count carbs and check sugars frequently and you will be fine.

I was diagnosed the beginning of December 2014. I used to use apps and scales to measure my carbs but after a while you pretty much know how many carbs you are getting. As said, check your sugars often. You will have more control. Good luck.

its very interesting
