That would be lovely though it all rather depends on what you ate for lunch- if it was a couple of doughnuts maybe !
Cherry hahaha .... yes ... I am eating to my meter (more or less) but at least I'm enjoying my meals, and DO get away with the odd fruity flapjack with no spikes!!!That would be lovely though it all rather depends on what you ate for lunch- if it was a couple of doughnuts maybe !
True. Thanks for the guidanceMaybe your calories are too low and your liver thinks you're starving.....?
Be nice to yourself-I have had a couple of those unexplained plateaus-I just kept to my low carbs and increased my calories a little (calories from 1200 to increase of 1400 or 1600 for a few days, carbs from 80 to 120 per day with no increase) and my fasting blood glucose came back down. I also increased my water intake-because when I was nutrient checking my diet the tracker told me I was low on water intake. I drink 4 to 6 cups of water per day now in addition to 20 ounces of coffee and 8 to 16 ounces of 2% milk per day.7.7 last two days despite REALLY low carbs and calories!
Thank you, very helpful. It can be lonely out there without support. Yes, I'll try your method. Helping my son and family move house the next few days, so things cd get wonky!Be nice to yourself-I have had a couple of those unexplained plateaus-I just kept to my low carbs and increased my calories a little (calories from 1200 to increase of 1400 or 1600 for a few days, carbs from 80 to 120 per day with no increase) and my fasting blood glucose came back down.
