I am way not perfect, but I try to be in the ball-park and one thing I do is weigh my foods, I know my BMI, and my Total Daily Energy Expenditure. Mine is about 1450. Another story if anyone wants to know.
So my numbers were pretty high on the diagnosis in January, 7.4 mmol/l or 134 mg/dl. Maybe to some of you that is low but it is considered Diabetic so I hit the ground running. I was scared. My numbers gradually decreased, and my last HbA1c was very good at 6.2 mmol/l (safe range is 4.2 to 5.7). Today I'm getting numbers no higher than 6.0, and recently numbers like 5.4 and 5.2.
As a side benefit, I've lost 16 lbs. I don't miss the sugar at all, have learned to bake with Almond Flour, and I like Stevia as a sweetner in my coffee. Real Stevia by Purisure. Dr. Berg's videos have helped me the most, and also, Dr. Benjamin Bikman on Insulin Resistance which I'm convinced I had long before the T2 came along.
I so hope someone else is helped by this, Denise
PS I really don't exercise enough, but as my energy increases due to diet changes I've already made, and my body rejuvenates itself through those changes, I expect to be doing more. I am 68 and headed for a camping trip (tent-camping) with a friend to one of our Oregon lakes for a week of kayaking and just enjoying the outdoors with some friends, and my little dog Mimmie ;)
PSS forgot to mention my supplements: Magnesium, B Vitamins, C, D3, E, ALA, Taurine, Zinc

Go with homemade kefir. All you need are some grains and 100% whole milk.
This company is the best in my view https://positivelyprobiotic.com/ everything you require is on the site including instructions.
Each person is different, so you need to try different things until you find something that works for you. From experience & advice from an MD & naturopath, I started with Berberine & Bitter Melon x3 times daily, it worked for me, but I got a better effect by adding cinnamon in green-black tea daily, a strong black seed oil but only as needed = a few times a week. I also changed my diet to eliminate carbs & all sugar except when my nose begins to dry out & does not produce any mucous than I take a little lactose = milk sugar, don't overdo it a little goes a long way otherwise you will need to blow your nose all day long for a few weeks or more, it may take a few days for it to take effect as well. The main thing is to change your diet, eliminate all carbs and sugar. Lookup the DIP diet, just do a search for it. Go to YouTube and look for videos by biswaroop or go to his website, it is on the home page. https://biswaroop.com/dipdiet/ he is the best, you will see this when you watch a few of his videos, you can clearly see he knows what he is talking about.

Metformin and Berberine
★★★★★
Metformin and berberine are great regulators. They won't cure but will keep u happy. Metformin is officially a prescription drug BUT according to Life Extension.com (which is by far the leading science-based magazine and supplement maker in the world) have hundreds of pages and reference hundreds of studies demonstrating the health producing and life extending properties of metformin even though this Rx competes with their products!!
My evening sugars are the biggest problem, usually over 250- 280 no matter what I seem to eat(and I have made changes!! )...mornings are under 150. very discouraged.... I am suffering alot of pain in several areas, neck/shoulder, arthritis in my thumb joint, and Achilles tendonitis wondering if this is what affects it
