Hi I'm Nicole. I'm 53 and was diagnosed with Type 2 on August 7. My fasting sugar number was 335. I haven't been able to see a nutritionist yet but I've read some stuff and I was told to do 30g carbs at each meal and 15g for morning, evening, and afternoon snack. Not too bad so far, numbers and weight continue to go down even on a week long vacation and my morning number was 111 today. Worried I will get bored with the food (I miss my toast and butter and sandwiches!) Enjoying reading all the info on here.

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. 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.
