[QUOTE="BeBeautiful, post: 1797581, member: 475332"] Thank you for your reply! I eat very little carbohydrates, the most I eat will be in vegetables as for months carbs such as pasta / bread etc have made me feel ill. I was classed as borderline diabetic when pregnant as my initial fasting bg was high, but the rest of my test was normal, I then had to monitor my bg before and after meals. Over 6 months, eating a very balanced diet - my bg were highest before eating and first thing in the morning and normal two hours after meals. A similar thing seems to be the case now where my highest readings are before meals - I can't find reasons for this anywhere online and my diabetic nurse doesn't know either. I have an underactive thyroid, should I check my bloods at three hours instead of two perhaps because of slow metabolism? Everyone keeps telling me to eat less carbs, but if I did I would only be allowed to eat meat! [/QUOTE]
