This morning my fasting BG was 6.5 (bedtime last night was 6.1). I didn't eat anything today until 12:15 when I had a bowl of homemade vegetable soup (carrot, onion, turnip and leeks, made with 2 Knorr Stockpots and the whole pot was about 2 litres) together with 2 slices of corned beef. Before I ate my BG was 6.3 and 1 hour after it was 8.7. I retested twice but it was 8.9 and 9.0 - even worse!
OK, at 2 hours it was back down to 5.7 and as I write this it is 5.1 (so I guess I can eat at dinner time!).
So what caused the 2.4 rise after 1 hour? Was the soup the guilty party or was the corned beef the villain?
