new to GB and the whole diabetes thing
Hello, I have been told by my doc I have type 2 diabetes about maybe 3 months ago. I am not yet taking any medication but I do try and check my BG levels daily.
Since forever I've been mostly eating fried foods and fast food. On average my levels are from 150 to 220 when I don't watch what I eat and maybe 120 to 180 when I actually make an effort to watch my carbs. I can even get it to 80 to 12o when I jog (when. I. Jog...) I'm a guy, age 30, about 5'2" and about 115-120lbs so I was in shock when I was told I was diabetic because I thought it had to do with weight. Not to mention my cholesterol and triglycerides are over 400? Or 200 I don't remember but they were pretty high 3 months ago. so that's me hoping to make better of myself. Really digging this new app, I like the features. Where can I find instruction on how to read the graph? My graph reading skills are terrible :/ So like.. Each day I enter a glucose level in my logs I have 3 dots. A high, a low, and an average but I don't know which of the three dots am I? I look forward to being more a part of the community. |
