Hi - and I wonder if anyone could shed a little light on why this sometimes happens to me.
I began the day well, with what I consider a good fasting BG of 5.7mmol/L ( i've been working on it since June and started in the 8s ).
I had a cup of black coffee with no sweetener of any description.
At 7.30am I had an almond porridge made of almonds, linseeds, oatbran and full milk - (which very often has me well within normal range post prandially ).
I go to work at 8.45am. I teach Yoga from 9.30 until 12.30 with nothing further to eat or drink.
I get home, test my blood and I get a 7.7 which I think is weirdly high considering what I've eaten - and that it has been over 5hrs since I've eaten - and I have been active.
As I said, this happens occasionally. I'm not unwell or tired or stressed or on any medication.
Do any of you good people understand why this happens? I'd be grateful!
