[QUOTE="52O342UOIF, post: 936904, member: 204586"] Wow, thanks! I'm still in my honeymoon (diagnosed 6 months ago) and don't take any basal insulin. The measuring is something I've been worrying about as it could jeopardize the result. I was thinking going one each diet a couple of days before beginning the one week measurement, would this be enough to avoid a distorted result? I don't if I'll have the time (or patience) to do a crossover. Having some test subjects would be awesome, I'd have to find some local diabetics for that, and one concern would be to handle all the data. As for the logging food I don't know how much information besides the carbohydrates I should log, calories and protein could be interesting. I'm guessing there will be a lot of egg, bacon and salad consumed during the low carb week. Protein's effect will probably be a lot bigger once the carbohydrates disappear, triggers gluconeogenesis and results in elevated BG. Would be nice if I could place in the meals in the recorded BG-graph and see the results. I think I'll be able to get a Libre prescribed, I've been offered one before. If not I hope I can get some sensors and borrow a scanner. [/QUOTE]
