[QUOTE="Alexandra100, post: 1609220, member: 429870"] Sorry for your disapointment. I really empathise, as very recently I've been experiencing the same sort of thing, with nice low results after breakfast and maybe lunch, but then higher numbers arriving in the evening even if I had eaten very few carbs, and very little of anything. Recently I have started following Dr Bernstein's programme of eating less carbs for breakfast and the results are good. This chimes with the experience of lots of people on here, who find they can eat more carbs later in the day. The theory is that we are usually more insulin resistant in the morning on waking and that gradually improves during the day. I have been keeping my breakfast carbs down to about 6, which takes some doing! but when I see the numbers on my meter it feels so worthwhile. You may not want / need to reduce your carbs to Dr B's 30 per day, but maybe trying out his ratio of 6 / 12 / 12 with higher numbers might give you results [/QUOTE]
