Accu Check Mobile monitor bought. BM down to 13.6|16.1 after my dinner. It’s funny how you can record your glucose twice in two minutes and get different results. Took my test a few times to get used to a new machine

Had Granola and Greek Yogurt for lunch and weetabix for breakfast. Having a baked potato with cheese for tea. Is that going along the right lines?
Not really... Anything with wheat/flour and starches will probably spike you. The Greek yoghurt's good though. But granola and weetabix, potato... Your meter'll tell you the same, but they're not good choices.Got my reading down to 15 but terrified to eat anything!

Granola, Weetabix and baked potato really aren't low carb. Is there any reason you are avoiding say meat and green veg or eggs and bacon. All of which wold help your blood sugar to reduce and fill you up more than what you're currently having.Got my reading down to 15 but terrified to eat anything!

Your blood sugar will love you so much more for it...No. It is just what I thought would help. I love chicken bacon eggs and cheese and veg so I will go down that line

As everyone else has said. None of these meals will help your blood sugar levels. They will only raise them. I think I (and others) have directed you to the dietdoctor site before now. Have you been to have a look? Here is a list of foods to eat, and another list to avoid. You will see that cereals (of any sort including granola and weetabix, ) plus potatoes, are in the to avoid list

Have the Greek yogurt for breakfast with maybe 2 or 3 strawberries or half a dozen raspberries thrown in, or better still eggs cooked any which way, bacon, mushrooms, a tomato, or cheese, or cold meats. Or try skipping it completely and just have a coffee with cream. For lunch maybe some oily fish (tinned varieties are quick and easy) with a few cherry toms and a salad, or again cold meats or cheese. For evening meal any meat or fish with vegetables that grow above ground, avoiding beans and peas unless your meter says these are OK.
Have you started testing before and after each meal yet, and keeping a food diary? You will soon see which foods are along the right lines, and which ones are not.
I’m my experience my BG is much lower with out breadJust started my food diary and checking my readings before and 2 hours after meals. Readings not coming down much yet but it will take time. Tomorrow’s breakfast is cheese scrambled egg and grilled bacon with a slice of whole meal bread. Think this cold is affecting my scores
