@Naomi425 those carbs are keeping your bgs high. Bread, potato, rice. Fruit juices etc. Remember tomatoes are a fruit!
Reduce your carbs and your bgs will follow.

Morning All 7.3 this morning......I am just accepting that as all my other readings are in the high 5's and low 6's my liver is just doing what it should.....Just wish it would get a move on and stop doing it though!

@Lindy1706 the liver dump is natural.
I con mine by eating a protein for supper so no fasting to trigger the liver output.
It keeps your hba1c down too.

4.5 today, after fasting for 2 days. Empties the liver, and I'm a notch down on the visceral fat measurement on my scale.

@ickihun when you say supper how late do you eat? I normally stop eating around 8pm.....Should I be maybe having a protein snack later before bed?

Hi @Lindy1706 - I have a snack of 2 crackerwheat with butter and cheese about 11.30pm - and my fasting sugars are within range, when I don't have a late snack my fasting is much higher. @ickihun knows her stuff, be guided by her excellent advice = I have.
