[QUOTE="barrym, post: 2593395, member: 70535"] Hmm, I'm not sure what the value of my numbers would give as we are all different. I just looked back over the last few jacket & roast wedges I've had and as they are part of meals with other carbs it's a bit hard to differentiate between the action of each component. I was told ages ago by my DSN that 'roughly' 5g raises me 1 mmol. In the recent meals I looked at, I have eaten at 6 mmol approx, and the meal has not taken me over my upper range limit of 10, and usually has briefly taken me low in the first however for which I didn't take any action, just waited. The rise came slower and later, maybe a guide would be three hours, but seemingly lower than the guide rise for those carbs, and presumably suppressed by the insulin. Putting it like that shows just how complex this condition is to manage and how unique we all are. Not a lot of help, sorry, but as [USER=85785]@Lamont D[/USER] says, try it and see. I used to think potato was off the menu, but not so for me with the paramters I set my self. HTH [/QUOTE]
