Last night 5.7, this morning 5.9. That’s after fasting from lunchtime yesterday. (Up to 7.7 when Dawn kicked in.)
One of my highest bg readings last night, 10.3 and lower this morning at 7.7, but not good.
Hi @Bluetit1802 I was 5.8 before eating. I ate at 7.20pm and was 10.3 two hours later at 9.20pm.Do you have any inkling why? When did you eat dinner, and what were you before and after?
I think the culprit was the mashed potato topping on a soya mince cottage pie. But I did have the leftovers for lunch the next day and it didn't spike me. It might be because it had been cooled in fridge overnight then reheated.
I had a previous reading in the 9s after mash. I'm ok with frozen oven chips, so perhaps the freezing then oven cooking prevents a spike.
I seem to be ok with any potato -had mashed last night and was 7.5 at 2 hours and 6.4 at 3 hours. Last night I was 6.4 at 10.30 and 5.0 at 5.00 this morning.Yes, I think you are right there. I can eat potatoes without a spike, but only roast, chips, fried, or new boiled. I cannot eat mash or baked, or any added to stews/casseroles. Mashed spuds are a definite no-no, or were last time I had them, admittedly 4 years ago now. Maybe things have changed for me now ... I see an experiment looming! The left over cooled and re-heated will have helped a lot.

Those numbers are perfectly fine thoughThose figures would make it a no-no for me I'm afraid.
