    BG not making sense to me

    Hi, Seems like the dawn effect but during the day. I’m not a health professional. Did you try eating a little between lunch in dinner? I wonder if this would make a difference in your # values? Just an idea.

    CPAP sleep apnea

    Thank you all for your replies & sharing your experiences. Starting the new year on keto diet. I will be happy & consider a success any improvement on my skin. Would be great to kill 2 birds with one stone. (I’m not sure I can say this idiom in that context, as English is not my native language).
