I did the Exante diet (3 shakes a day) for two months and lost a lot ofweight then moved onto 2 shakes and grrens and tofu and continued to lose weight for 2 more months. My bg went from 9.5 to 5.6 in the first 3 months. Now I have either a Purition shake with unsweetened almond milk or keto granola with almond milk for breakfast, keto crackers (almond and flaxseed) with low fat sheese triangles for lunch and steamed brocolli/cauli/courgette/kale and with tofu or paneer for dinner, but my blood glucose has started to rise. I sometimes have a snack of a couple of squares of 100% dark chocolate or a packet of Cheesies (that says 0g carbs on the packet). I don't know why my bg is rising. Are the things I'm eating not right? I don't eat meat, fish or eggs due to my faith so any advice would be happily received. I am still trying to lose weight, but at a slower pace.
