Anyone ever had ice cream in a moment of weakness, and tested what their numbers are after? Or tested what their healthy relatives and friends are at after a similar treat?
I was 4.9 before ice cream, and 6 after 2 hours post ice cream + avocado + milk + beef and radish stew. No medication now. Was on metformin for a year until it gave me b12 related joint issues. Diagnosed for 2 years, suspect I've had type 2 for three. Family history on mom's side. Age 32. Last blood test a1c 5.4. Usually I try to not eat grains and potatoes etc., and skips breakfast and lunch 2-3 days a week. 1-2 hours walk 5 days a week. Weights 4 days a week with some yoga.
Husband, who has not been diagnosed with diabetes, ate the same albeit in larger portions, and scarily got higher numbers than me. Time to nag him into doing a blood test at the doctor's?
