On Dec. 6, 2008, I had found out that I had Type II Diabetes. From 12-7-07 on and up until 1-7-08, when I met with my dietician, I recorded the following glucose readings as I was learning how various foods interacted with my body’s glucose response.

On Jan. 7, 2008, I had an appointment with the dietician. She set my goals for my glucose to be in and they are as follows:
Before Breakfast between 65-99
Before Lunch or Dinner between 65-120
2 Hours after Lunch or Dinner 65-140

Carbs for each meal to be between 45-60 grams

So from here on, the new log is as follows:
