[QUOTE="Oldvatr, post: 1000238, member: 196898"] Sorry, i meant Q1 to ask if you get the hunger pangs in the morning, or is it only in response to the Tea. I got the same advice on testing from my GP, but if you press hard enough it can change, I had to bring my laptop in and show my spreadsheet with test results I had done privately. I would strongly advise that you are testing when trying out the LC diet- speak with your doctor about it since you may be able to reduce or change doseage later. With testing you could see how the timing of the meds affects your overall averages, and see if bringing the Metformin earlier is any benefit for you. A further observation point:- LCdiets, they will make the hunger pangs worse, at least to start with (see Carb Flu) but that passes after a short while. Your admission of snacking after your main meal is of concern since it indicates that this bad habit will continue, and negate the benefits of the diet. I find the LC diet reduces my hunger now, and certainly drops my bgl averages. Also my family actually enjoy the new menu. [/QUOTE]
