Does anyone test after using the sugarfree types?

Hi Sharon,

I test sometimes after eating yogurt and I don't have any problems with it.

I can even eat a half of a cup of yogurt after eating lunch or dinner and

still have no problems with high bg's.

Do we really have to wait 2 hrs after testing a food?

And should it be just a serving? Would there be any

difference to eating two servings of it? I get so hungry waiting.

I hate being diabetic. Its so overwhelming for me. My numbers

just seem to be getting higher and higher. If I had not been making changes

since April, how high would the #$%^ A1c be?

Im lucky enough not to be taking meds yet. My A1c is climbing slowly. Since

April its been 6.3 to 6.6 to 6.9 on Sept 10th. Every time I go in to get my

results, my weight creeps up a few pounds, too. I cant tell you how crappy

I feel emotionally and physically.

When I was first diagnosed with diabetes, it took a year for my numbers to

really stablize. At the same time, I had to learn to eat properly. It takes

time but you need to work with your doctor. And try not to stress about the

whole thing. I hope things get better. Pam S.
