@A DiabetesTeam Member hello I am on a Diabetes Care plan with my doctor and I have 6monthly blood tests and they showed that my Diabetes Type2 was in remission and I don’t need to take the Metformin diabetes MEDICATION daily

A Diabete...

Both numbers are great

Since I have been wearing the Libre system for somewhat over a year now I don't even check "numbers" at all anymore

For me it's all about Time In Range (TIR)

I set my range at 4.0 to 8.0 (72 to 144) and try to (control) so that I'm "in range" 90% of the time

If I can achieve that then I am "unlikely" to ever develop "diabetic complications" and that's really why we should be testing. To manage and keep the beast at bay

So if the number is good, call it good

A "controlled number" will only be seen if you have control - there is no rule against "bouncing around a bit" and as others have noted, there are dozens of things other than what we eat that can effect our blood sugar levels

Low carb/high protein/high fibre diet

Thank you Graham for the great information. I'm guilty of constantly wanting to check my numbers and when the numbers are good but not what i want i really stress about it i know that doesn't help with my numbers at all. I love the information i get on here it has helped me so much! Thank you all for sharing your stories! Hugs to you all 🤗

Thank you. That makes sense to me if I can only get rid of the ball and chain made of daily numbers from around my leg!
