Have you talked to your Endocrinologist ( Diabetes doctor) about carb counting?

Please check with your doctor about carb counting. If you want, write everything you eat down and put those item's totals, then add them up and see what you have eat for each snack and meal.

Sorry bro.

1) why to go to endo to learn carb counting ? We can do that ourselves.

2) dietitians are well trained for counting the ingredients. They are better, if well trained and updating knowledge, than endos.

Do you get good nights sleep? High sugar count in the morning could be due to sleeplessness. Secondly have your night food (supper) early by 7.00 pm. Give your stomach good 12 hours rest.
