[QUOTE="Alexandra100, post: 1627305, member: 429870"] Maybe the rise after the bike ride was down to your running out of available glycogen before the end, so you liver helpfully released some to fuel the rest of it. I am finding something similar - if I go on fasting too long between meals, my nice low post prandial bg is replaced by a higher one, which is annoying when I want it to be low pre-prandially. I am resolved to experiment with eating eg a little cheese whenever a meal is going to be postponed. The second half of your puzzle is more difficult, but just maybe most of the 7.1 was used to replenish your muscles after their exercise, leaving a debit balance which was filled by the low carb lunch, so there was less surplus than usual 2 hours later. Bearing in mind that given the inaccuracy of meters the difference between 6.9 and 7.1 is not huge. [/QUOTE]
