Default New to GB

I have had Type 2 diabetes for about 20 years, now 71 yo, but still controlling with diet, exercise and pills (2 gm metformin, 15 mg Actos and recently 100 mg Januvia) with an A1c that has been creeping up now at 6.9.
Recently started Januvia and renewed emphasis on carbohydrates and morning blood sugars have reduced significantly. Also have hypertension and high cholesterol which are controlled by meds.
Just found a book which is excellent "Eat What You Love, Love What You Eat with Diabetes". Not much new but a philosophy that appeals to me. My other reference source is TCOYD Book (Take Control of Your Diabetes) - both books are excellent.
I found GB looking for an app that would run on my iPhone and synching to my iMac is a plus - actually from what I see the iPhone just uploads logs to the iMac which is the depository?
Still finding my way through logging activity. Don't see the need to log meds as they are constant daily.

Welcome to the Forum!

"I found GB looking for an app that would run on my iPhone and synching to my iMac is a plus - actually from what I see the iPhone just uploads logs to the iMac which is the depository?"

The iPhone uploads the logged data to the cloud (GB Website), which can be viewed by the iMac or any other computer with web capability.

Good luck with your control and management.
