Not open for further replies.
6.3 this morning,good readings Bluetit,I go for my fasting blood test at 10am no dout it will have gone up by then.
 
7.1 this morning, up a little, but I have a cold....grrr.

Went to the dietician today, I have lost another 1.7 kg (3.75 lbs) which I will happily take. She perused my food record (I lied a couple of times and added more carbs because she likes carbs). She wants me to replace cream with diet yoghurt and add more fruit ie apples and oranges. She thinks I am not eating enough during the day and wants me to add more yoghurt.

Hmmmmm, sticking with LCHF and will up the protein to increase calories. I can't bring myself to add more carbs, nor grains. I see her again in 2 weeks.
 
5.4 this am and always have my breakfast when i get up as always starving....never used to eat breakfast now I love it :)
 
Think my nasty 11 this morning was caused by a bowl of chocolate mug cake with cream...am cross with myself. I so fancied a treat. Guess it put my carbs just a bit too high :(
 
6.5 :(

Did you retest it Allie, as it seems quite a hike, bearing in mind your decreases of late. How many carbs were in the cake, and what did that take you to?
 
I was 7.2 after my supper 2 hrs. Then had almond mug cake with a dollop of extra thick cream on..I never tested for that as I've had it before...but I also had a bad night with pain so it could be that

As a one-off, I'd write it down to "interesting, but so far, meaningless", until you tried it again, ideally without the pain..........:(

I was intending making some of that today to try.....I got coconut flour though as my local Holland and barret didn't have almond flour!!
 
Spot on 5 again for me.....day off again, homemade chicken and leek soup in the slow cooker for later, day in away from the gales and rain, just littering around with a bit of dancing around to my music!
 
5.6 today. I need to go shopping later so hope the rain lashing against my bedroom window knocks off.
