My levels during the week while working . Quite physically demanding job
And not drinking any alcohol is between
5 and 7 . During the weekend with a few glasses of white or red wine it is always between 4 and 5 . So it’s the wine for me
Plus the odd malt whiskey . Irish of course [emoji23]
That’s what I’m thinking now my carb intake has gone down to between 20 to 30 grs a day most days under 20
So we’ll see what happens onwards and upwards
Thanks a lot for all the responses . Mind calmer now .
It’s not to excessive but I know it’s there . Seeing my doc in about a month so I’ll see what it’s like then
I have tingly feet all week but my bg is pretty good average according to meter is 5.7 could I have had it for a while and not been. Diagnosed . So damage already done
BTW . Had a great time in Prague a good few years ago on a stag ... your beer there is amazingly gorgeous . Loved your town . Great bars and a brilliant Irish bar there who looked after us
Been doin it for a lifetime .. . But I’m only 59 so late diagnosis for me . Prob go downhill fast . But LCHF might save me .. if T2 takes 20 yrs off yer life and I intended to live till I was 100. Then I have about 21 yrs left . That’ll do
I often think ..... I was diagnosed on 27 feb 2018 the weekend before I was at my mates birthday party I had about 7 or 8 pints Guinness and about 4 or 5 whiskeys . .... Absolutely no problems . Apart from a hangover next day . Then that week got toldI had T2 Diabetes . Work that one out .
Thanks for the response. The activity / Work goes on all day so it’s keeping my levels above 6 all day from 06:00 till about 18:00 after dinner , about 19:00 they drop to mid 5s then in the morning back up to 6s again . I’m only doin about 20 to30 grs of carbs a day . At the weekend I’m all in...
So I work in construction it’s a bit demanding physically and I’m wondering if it’s affecting my BG Levels . This morning FBG was 6.1 dropped to 6 after coffee and cream a burger and an egg ( no bun) . Ok put it down to DP . Tested again at 3 .5 hrs later and 6.6 haven’t had any snacks or food...
6.1 this morning ant get out of the 6 s unless there’s some wine involved at night . No matter what I do it’s always between 6 to 6.7 then drops to 5.6 overvthe day
Only doin about 20 to 30 grms of carbs a day
