When people who know nothing about the LCHF diet tell me I'm killing myself being on it. I was killing myself not being on it!
Sugars rise in the morning because of the release of hormones. And it could just be inconsistent BG readings, 0.45 either way isn't a lot.

Thanks @Twoplayer I just want it to go down to the 5 - 6 mark like others :( Being impatient I guess

Good day folks. It was a 4.7 this morning.

Tested every day for a week now. This will bankrupt me
