[QUOTE="copey399, post: 1001989, member: 193670"] I think you probably spiked quite high after eating the biscuits which you would have registered if you'd tested 2 hours after and I have found that after a steep rise my BS drops lower than my normal average. We went out for a meal yesterday and although I've normally just had the meat and allowed veg I was bad and ate everything including the roast potatoes, stuffing, carrots and peas and then while the others were tucking into banoffee pie and cream or sticky toffee pudding I rebelled and had a scoop of sorbet :( My BS before the meal was 5.6. Two hours after it shot up to 12.6 but four hours after it was 4.5. I don't very often get readings in the 4s even when I'm being strict so I think it's the body reacting with a surge of insulin to deal with the "high". I'm no expert so if that's wrong I'm sure somebody will correct me. [/QUOTE]
