Hi, you should go for 30 minutes brisk walk in the morning. Do regular exercise atleast 15-20 minutes daily. Take lukewarm water with half spoon methidana powder in the morning. Take salad before meals. Drink more water in a day. Split your meals into 6 times per day and eating in fair and consistent amount. No long gapes and skipping of meals. Never miss out breakfast. Complex carbohydrates and fibre should be included in diet. Junk food should be avoided. You should avoid fasting and feasting. Avoid exercising after insulin injection. Take proper sleep. Give me a private consult, I will give you balanced diet chart ok.

Go for 1 hour biskregular walks as this is the first step to diabetes control. Buy flaxseeds (alsi beej) from any big grocery shop. Grind it to powde. Take 1 tablespoonful with water 3 times a day fo the rest of your life. Flaxseed powder has great advantages. Try also to see a dietician. These few steps might help.

Mr. Lybrate-user, you have not mentioned the blood glucose levels (fasting & pp) and your age. The reason for blood glucose not reducing or not coming to normal may happen due to either inadequate dose of insulin or food intake is more than the actual need. At 51 kg weight, unless you increase daily exercise, caloric intake has to be 51 kgs x 25 cals = 1275 calories. Your present intake appears to be higher and exercise is very much inadequate. You need to exercise at least for 1 hour or more. If you want specific advise please come in a private conversation with all the above details, then I will be able to guide. Thanks.
