[QUOTE="vit90, post: 858640, member: 141633"] Oh well! I completely forgot to test at the 1 hour mark and it was too late when I realised so I simply did a 2 hour test. This was 8.0 from 5.2, so not good enough. That was after an 1125 calorie meal with a reasonable amount of protein (60g) but only a modest amount of carbs (19g). I've already worked out supper's nutrient values: 730 calories, 46g fat, 39g protein, 10g carbs and 10g fibre, making a total for the day of roughly 2300 calories, 174g fat, 126g protein, 34g carbs and 22g fibre. For my low carbing that's slightly more carbs than I want to aim for (trying to limit to under 30g) but not too excessive. My calorie consumption is probably 2400 to 2500 per day if I keep up my exercise regime, so 2300 calories is a good maintenance value. I really want to limit protein to under 80g, too. Also really want fibre to be at least 30g. More tests coming up! [/QUOTE]
