5.9 at 5:00 am, new tub of strips @bigjim19

You two (@bigjim19 ) make me smile with your "Strips across the world" you're both very generous with your 5's. Nice reading.

I do miss pasta great idea to check your husband though as a marker. Am sure you'll be back to your usual 5s in a day or so

Try reheated @PenfoldAPD ? Only downside can be very soft. Give it a try on your meter?

Thanks for that, I didn't know it reduces the carbs - I'll save it for a special treat

9.1 I'm so dismayed..I know I've only been eating keto for two weeks but my body hasn't noticed

It can take 6 weeks hun. Keep at it. Some change for life.

Potato, rice and pasta for me but I'm on insulin so some gets converted. Worth a try thou. Definately a difference on meter. Fresh to reheated, potato the most. Only small palm fill needed.

Some go to work gym or for a walk in their lunch hour hun. Something you could fit in?

Congratulations on both

Science eh?? Clever stuff

6.9 a bit high for me, but I blame the bank, a bit stressed!!!. Happy Friday

Wow 6.3 this morning. I don't think buckwheat pasta even a small portion is for me. As a comparison tested my non diabetic husband who had a much larger portion and his was 5.9. Felt a bit better after that.

I've not had pasta since I was diagnosed. Hubby (also diabetic) can manage a small portion ok without a big spike.

 

[Polgara]

Ps. Ive lost weight.

Hooray!

Good Morning! 6.9 at 0545 today.
A bit higher than usual. I think it's because I hadn't defrosted anything from the freezer yesterday, and as it was raining I didn't want to walk to the supermarket so I had wholemeal pasta with pesto last night. Fish tonight so should be lower tomorrow.

Today 7.0
