I've never had a hypo in 14 years of T2. Today I was working in the garden, & about 2 hours after lunch (pork shoulder steak, onions & courgette, followed by 2 dried apricots) I came in for a cup of tea & check my BG at 4:30 p.m. it was 4.8.
I decided to experiment so continued working without a snack. When I stopped at 6:30 it had risen to 6.3
Instead of dropping from 4.8 to a hypo, my system obviously recognised the danger & generated more BG as needed.
The same applies when I play tennis. 2 - 3 hours tennis, & my BG rises to over 7.
What is YOUR experience? Do YOU get hypos with LCHF ?
