[QUOTE="Bluetit1802, post: 692933, member: 94045"] It may be OK for the future, but if I were you I would concentrate on getting those "before" readings down to under 6 to begin with. You can best do this by cutting out the main culprits for now (bread, pasta, rice, potatoes, pastry, cereals). Eat as much meat, fish, eggs, cheese, vegetables, salads as you wish. If you absolutely must have pasta etc. have only a very small portion and fill up with extra veg or protein. Once your before levels are down, your post levels will drop accordingly and you can experiment more with pasta. I still think you are missing your peak by just testing at 2 hours. It isn't an exact science. When experimenting it is wise to test at 1 hour, 2hours, 2.5 hours and even 3 hours. [/QUOTE]
