Hi all and nice to meet everyone. I am like you sassy and thrilled to see this diabetes board too. I am new to diabetes even though my husband has it...now me. He and I never took it seriously... he takes his meds and plum quit testing his BS. Now that I have it, too, the dietitian gave me two meters... one for me and him. I made him test his BS and it was mid 400's!!!! Opened both of our eyes!

I have an appt for him to see the doc on Monday!! They are working him in! I didn't know about the bacon and eggs thing...regarding fat and protein either. Is it that we need to add fiber along with all of this to keep the BS level?
