[quote=Anonymous]My experience is a decade ago, so I'm not sure if the recommendations have changed.... 1. Strict diet 2. Frequent finger pricks - I did one when I got up in the morning and one after meal (I think 1 or 2 hours after I ate) 3. Keep track of the results! Different foods and timing work for different people. My doctor worked with me to understand the results and make changes based on the numbers - like if my breakfast numbers were always high, we shifted some of those carbs to dinner. 4. A short walk after each meal did wonders for keeping my numbers in check. Even just a five or ten minute walk up and down the block made a huge difference.[/quote]
