@rosco 2 Hi I don't eat spuds or pasta, I do occasionaly have basmati rice that I have cooked and reheated and that doesn't spike my BG much. I would try taking my BG before and after to see if reheating the spuds did spike my BG. @Daphne917 Not surprised that the reheated pasta doesn't spike...

@Living-by-the-beach Thanks, and good luck with trying the oats. Nice to see you are still getting plenty exercise. I retire next friday and hope to be able to go for long walks now that I will have plenty of time on my hands. @Alexandra100 Thanks. Found this page on Diabetes Warrior who...

@LittleGreyCat Because I consume more than 30 grams of RS daily I can eat food that would normally send my BG thro' the roof. The RS stops the spikes from starchy food being high. (My RS intake = potato starch 45grams = 30grams RS plus what I get from other foods i.e. green bananas > 5grams...

Here is my take on the video, A lot of the stuff he states is happening, by what I see on this forum i.e very good bg results on the lchf diets, especially the great fasting bg results posted every day on here. Now whether this diet has long term bad issues I don't know, he states something...

Couldn't agree with you more on both counts.

@bulkbiker No I'm not changing the diet as it's goin' well for me. No I'm not restricting calories.

@bulkbiker Sorry I only just recently started monioring my BG's, so I have no previous data.

@Dexie1 Yeah i watched that program. The experiment was done in an Italian restaurant where the non diabetic workers there took the same meal over 3 days. First day the had it normal and their BG was taken to show how it spiked 1hr and 2 hrs after. Day 2 had same meal cold and BG readings were...

@CherryAA "Its an interesting experiment, but I'm not convinced from your numbers . If you love the diet then I guess it makes sense to stick to it, but I'm struggling to see the particular health benefit from what you have posted." Thanks for showing interest in this. I dont love the diet...

Day 4, http://allstarsracing.info/Blood%20Glucose%20Chart.htm Had my worst fasting BG so far. Took 15g Potato Starch first thing. Later when I thought about why i had such a bad fasting BG, I realised the previous night I forgot to take the 15g Potato Starch with my last meal and took it...

Day 3 threw me a big surprise at the end of the day. http://allstarsracing.info/Blood%20Glucose%20Chart.htm Had a Lamb Madras Curry, usually have 1/2 a plain naan bread with it, but I just had the curry and finished up with my lowest last BG reading so far for the end of the day. Tom

Day 2 done and BG results are up. http://allstarsracing.info/Blood%20Glucose%20Chart.htm @rom35 Can't take as many readings as you are suggesting through the week, as I am a taxi driver and dont have the time. I have done them whenever I could. As I only work monday to friday I will do as you...

OK thats the first days meals and BG results up. http://allstarsracing.info/Blood%20Glucose%20Chart.htm Was kinda surprised that my fasting BG was as high. The banana seeems ok considering it only spiked 0.7 from the fasting BG. The Overnight Oats is another slight surprise, I'm guessing that...

I bought a codefree BG monitor today. I havent used one for at least 10 years and going to record a week in my resistant starch diet starting tomorrow. Started the diet in August last year and my Hab1c came down from 76 to 45 last reading was 2 months ago. I have the chart made up and intend to...

@Living-by-the-beach Wow thats great that you get so much exercise on your bike. Wish I was like that but sadly as I'm a cabbie I dont get very much exercise retire this year so that will hopefully change. I love port too mate trouble is I like having crackers with cheese or pate with it and...

@Living-by-the-beach Yes thats correct but in order to lose weight you have to eat when you feel hungry not to binge eat. Over christmas I put on 10 lbs with eating and drinking far too much this came back of in a few weeks after.

@Living-by-the-beach Started the diet august last year, done the chart for the past 2 years just to show how must numbers were creeping up and when I started the diet thet were coming down. Thanks for the link thats another good page puts it simply. This link below gives a good idea of how...
