LivingLightly, Thank you for reply & advice. Don't know why? I've found if I eat potato in very small amounts, my Blood Sugar only goes up a point or two. (2 hours after dinner with small jacket potato and my BG is 12.1 mmol and heading in the right direction). Pasta, bread, & pastries seem...

4.30pm. Blood Glucose still high @12.6, but I'm going to eat now whilst it's early and hopefully BG level will go down during evening and night. I'll just put today down to experience as a bad day. Dinner coming up shouldn't do too much damage.... Salmon fillet with green beans , plus small...

Devil took hold last night and gave me an 8am awakening BG 18.6mmol. I had a late tea and with pasta, but wasn't expecting it quite so high. Dry mouth, blurry vision and feel lethargic and low today. I'll fast until the numbers reduce to single figures. Feel like going back to bed and start...

A very concerning BG 18.6 mmol @ 8am.

I'd book into a tropical naturist resort for a while if I were you. Nobody would mind the lack of clothes, it would be nice and sunny and you can just chill, whinge and be grumpy till your hearts content. Get to the Travel Agents quick........

Very happy with reading for me. BG 5.8mmol on waking 3.05am.

Z- Was this a morning BG reading? If so, I'd say in the low 5s is a number not to be disappointed in, but one to be proud of.

Good morning All ..... Had an amazing BG reading 5.8 mmol on waking @ 3.05 am. 3 hours later, no food or drink and BG has risen to a still impressive 7.9mmol. I think these are my best figures, since starting this journey. Must back it up, with more of the same tomorrow.

8.6mmol @3am and back to bed. 10.9mmol @6.15am when getting out of bed. I don't understand why or how the reading rises during those sleeping hours. Well done to all who are forcing those BG levels down. Plenty of folk are going great guns which is lovely to witness....

I need to discover something to replace cereal for sure. One small bowl put my Blood Glucose out of kilter for 10 hours. Am back under 10mmol now 2pm , but been high for virtually half the day, just for a bit of cereal. Your discovery of coconut and chia seeds would suit me well I'm sure.....

I don't have a cold, but am feeling the cold. Feels like winter has arrived. Now then, now then ,now then. Reading on waking at 3.15 am. BG 5.5 mmol. Fantastic result , but.....Think that was too early and I went back to bed. Bowl of Cereal and sleep for 4 hours gave me a 7.39amwaking reading...

On waking 7.15 a.m. BG 13.6mmol.

BG 13.6mmol on waking @7.15am. Had something of a sugar rush last night, Visiting and having sugar in a creamy coffee. ( It was so nice, I had it twice).... so what could I expect different..... Absolutely nothing! Have a good day friends.....

Thanks well - wishers, for the thoughts sent. I'm OK up to a point but, have health issues that dont need discussing atm. Anyway this mornings BG reading was 11.2mmol. Keep trying to reduce it and it rebounds, possibly due to meds and current health. Reading went up to 13.7 mmol after a couple...

All ready for sweetener and Blood Glucose testing and I get taken ill and had a hospital visit past 24 hours, so I've postponed the testing with squash etc for now. This morning BG 12.7 mmol. Most likely higher due to the hospital attendance and stress .... Will prevail in the end and this is...

Good luck with that. Had my booster not long ago and spent a hellish 24 hours shivering and teeth clattering , trembling and sweating, freezing and melting, no energy, totally wasted and spread over my sofa with quilt wrapped around me, central heating on full, blistering cluster headache, and...

Never tried fruit teas. It kind of didn't sit right in my head...... fruit, mixed with tea. However, I know these teas are popular and worth looking at as an alternative to plain water. Thanks for the tip....

I MUST change drinking habits immediately and I will try the Lime in a glass or several of water. Thank you for replying and the advice. It could make a huge difference to my health, getting me away from the sweeteners.......... Thanks......

Acessulfate and sucralose are in the squash I drink. I've just read, they may cause inflammation of gut, Obesity and Diabetes. So the drink I've used to help me lose weight and reduce Blood Glucose levels, has had the opposite effect. Now that's settled..... Where do I go from here? Water is...

Was 9.6 on waking at 4.20am. Had coffee and poached egg on 1 piece toast. Was still tired so went back to bed. Slept until 6.40 am and tested at 14.7. Just one piece of toast and my Blood Glucose level spikes. Bread is a killer for me. . . . . . Still ill take the 9.6mmol BG on waking as my...
