Hello @evej I just had one other thought. This takes us into quirky medicine territory, not the sort of thing doctors tell us.
But, according to research, and it's real research not quirky stuff, high blood sugars mean that we lose more magnesium than normal, in our urine. Now I move on to the quirky stuff, that might be having an impact on your cortisol levels. So as well as having a few carbs for breakfast, and melon is great, it might be worth thinking about this, you can find stuff online.
I only found this out a few years ago, when I tried to take a vitamin d supplement, and by late April, when we getting real vitamin d, I started to feel quite weird, and then I remembered that the advice was don't take a supplement without magnesium. So I found out more about it, and saw the research about high blood sugars, and put two and two together.
