At 6:30 sugar was 9.6. Had 1 slice of toast with peanut butter at 7:30. Did a little exercise. In the morning. Checked sugar before lunch it is now 10.5. Now I am depressed and don’t want to eat but now am hungry. Normal for me is in the high sixes and low sevens. Just can’t get on an even keel...

I had egg bits for breakfast and 2 hrs later bs 7.9. Read on this site that drink water and take a walk would help. So that is what I did but an hour later bs up to 9.7. I don’t know what to do, is it slow metabolism or a liver dump? Frustrated this stuff is stressing me out which raises my bs...

These are both really good posts. Would love to see this topic expanded.

I have fallen off the sugar wagon and can’t get back on. I don’t have a confidant. Getting very tired with all the fall yard work and nothing to reward myself with but food. Any suggestions?

Has this video hacked this site. I couldn’t watch to the end so didn’t know if it’s a scam. Can anyone tell me? Seems to good to be true.

Can anyone explain the process of your liver dumping sugar into your blood. I know it happens during the night and I have solved that problem with a late protein snack. Can it happen between breakfast and lunch if you don’t snack? Getting discouraged by huge bs even with a proper breakfast.

Morning sugar 7.2 really good. Two hours after breakfast it is 12. How long will it take to go down and to I have to not eat until it goes down or change what I eat for breakfast. What is an acceptable rise after a meal?

I have read here that Metformin gives some people diarrhea. How can you deal with that. Change the times you take it, take imodium, change medication, but to what. I am becoming a recluse because and thats not good for my mental health.

The advice was to eat a big enough protein snack to get through the night. These are not the only choices just examples. Could be any meat or cheese etc.
