Today was the highest carb day I have had in... um... months. And the results were interesting!
B: coffeencream
L: chicken wings starter, with BBQ sauce. I expected chicken wings with a little pot of BBQ. What I got were breadcrumbed chicken wings smothered in a really sweet sauce. Scraped as much off as poss, but it was still far too carby. Then I had Hunters Chicken, which we all know is chicken, cheese and bacon, and sauce again. This time in a pot. With chips. And salad. I ate all but the sauce.
Did I mention this was 6 hours after my coffee brekkie, and I was ravenous.
8.1 at 2 hours. Much better than expected.
But by this time, I was on a roll...
S: chocolate gateau. Oh yes, you heard me. Sublime. And 2 hours after that, 10mmol/l
Which is pretty horrific, given my aim to never go higher than 7.
But I am still amazed that I didn't go MUCH higher. The gateaux must have caught my second insulin response, and mopped up the glucose. Worth remembering this.
Other tests showed that was around the peak, so all in all, quite chuffed, and very surprised.
Not that I will be doing it again soon.
D: Haven't needed anything, but will have some cheese before bed, because I won't sleep if I am hungry.
