BS readings

Sorry not posted earlier in bed today as MS not so good. Maybe something is brewing here. I've gone bed at a horrid 16 despite low carb food pain has been a real problem up to the point I've needed Oramorph to get on top of it...can't really do much till Monday sadly. Night night all
 
Well a nice 5.2 before dinner, a disappointing 9.3 2hrs after dinner. Was hoping the Veggie crisp bakes would be OK obviously not.

Mind you I did find the Butternut Squash chips palletable, bit more work should improve things
 

sorry to hear that. Try and get some rest though not easy if you are in pain. Hopefully they can sort you out on Monday - sounds like something is triggering both MS and higher BS levels. x

I eat Burgens Soya and linseed bread and can have 2 slices with no real rise - in fact sometimes my BS is lower after lunch than before!!

5.5 pre lunch

Lunch 2 small rounds of Burgens Soya and linseed toast, tinned tomatoes and a egg.

6.0 Post Lunch.

So I'm happy with that.
 
Ideally we look for 10gm carbs per 100gm so it sounds ok on that level as does the fats, it's the fat free we need to avoid as the sugar they load in it gives high carbs. For now, until you reduce levels I would try and avoid the chips.....
 
Oh alliebee! Hope you have managed a painless and more restful night. Thinking of you.
 
Lots to catch up on here after a busy day out yesterday!
My levels yesterday :
Fasting 5.3
Pre late lunch out ( steak mushrooms and salad with a vodka) 5.7
2hrs after late lunch spot on 5
4 hours later at home 4.3 I then had a few squares of cheese as a snack and followed with a trial of Morrison's frozen profiteroles , had 4 (2.5gm carbs each) and two hours later at bedtime I was 4.6
Fasting today 4.7
It may be Sunday but I woke at 5.45am and couldn't doze again but didn't feel like a zombie either, since being lchf I find I wake more refreshed and alert naturally more and more
