Hi John it probably is a change even marginally I have done similar things and BG went up, I think when we keep so controlled in what we eat then we just alter things just a little it can affect our BG. I didn't eat any carbs at all then when I was happy with my size I slowly introduced them back in my diet and it happened to me so fingers crossed it's just a blip and your body will settle again. Good luck Kathleen. Will we see you on Friday in York?
PS. I'm only diet controlled no medication,are you the same?

Hi @Granny_grump_ Hope you are right things are calming down a bit today so hope to be back to normal soon. Though 13.8 was higher than I'd seen in the last 12 months I believe so was a shock.

Yes still hoping to make it but things a little up and down at the moment here so not 100 percent sure at the moment.
