Just to round off my contribution to this topic. I did fall badly off the wagon this Xmas as promised, but I am back on it, Now, I do a lowish carb mediterrnean diet but its not keto and before the holidays my daily average was running at 6,9 mmol. l which is near to the 7mmol.l that my GP wants me to target. During Xmas and the New Year festivities, this rose to a stupendous 8.2 mmol/l so yes I am still diabetic. But when I stopped being silly, my bgl has dropped quickly and is currently averaging 7.0 mmol.l and the 2 kg I put on has dropped back and my body weight is back to its normal 67.4 kg within a week.
So it was worse than last year, but only by a small amount. To prove I am back. we had a chinese takeway tonight with sweet n sour chicken balls, and my readings went 5.2 7.7 5.2 (which is pre/ 2hr PP/ 4hr PP) so I am in the driving seat again YAY! Yes I did have the S&S and the Special Fried rice.
