Yesterday was my fasting HbA1c so breakfast was a little out of kilter
B - Mcdonalds double sausage & egg mcmuffin (without the muffin)
L - Spinach & feta bites with a salad, bought at the office canteen
D - At an Italian restaurant so sirloin steak with stilton in a mozzarella sauce & salad. YUM. And red wine.
The spinach & feta bites were breaded but were the best food on offer. Those few bits of breadcrumbs gave me a +2 spike up to 7.7 postprandial. That's only just within the normal range and from only a few breadcrumbs; God knows where my BG would be if I'd had a wrap or potato. It was a reminder that, even though my diabetes was caught early and is under control with no symptoms, I can't be complacent and I mustn't forget that I just don't tolerate carbs anymore.
