that has never happened where the after reading has been so much lower

Thankyou Douglas. That does make sense. Esp now I've lost my excess weight I'm.learning how to balance my weight by increasing a bit. But my bg has risen a bit to what it was. Esp fasting. Averaging 5.8 to 6.2 in the day...I can't bear the thought of more fat in my diet..and if I up my protein bgs rise a bit at around 3 hours...trying to get the balance right without losing any more

 

[alliebee]

Maybe time to move on to low GI foods and start testing again???

6.6 pre dinner 7.5 at 2 hours and after 30 / 40 minutes strong walking (reciting in my head on every lap up and down the driveway every mission and all the crew names flown by NASA between Mercury 3 in 1961 and the ASTP / USSR flight in 1975 .. yep, I was REALLY concentrating and did it three times back down to 6.0.

That I like

Yay!!! 6.2 after breakfast - cheese omelette. A 6 !!!

 

[Sam72]

Also lost another 3 lbs today.

 

[ally1]

well done sam

alliebee i had 3 rashers of bacon and 2 fried eggs

 

[alliebee]

That's great. No carbs in egg n bacon. If you want to low carb. As you were asking about ketosis and weight loss

Well done @ally1 that's an excellent result

 

[ally1]

thank you kezzer, my lunch time pre test will be high as i had half a packet of crisps

 

[alliebee]

Like I was saying in private message. Look at the back of packet and see the carbohydrate count
Then divide as you had half a pack...limit your carbs to around 50g a day and as you say you want you should get into ketosis...good luck. Others here will advise you too

 

[alliebee]

Anyone here want to give Ally some tips on low carbing..she wants to try ketosis to lose weight

 

[Kezzer4321]

Hi Ally, well perhaps it won't affect you as much as you think. I'll keep my fingers crossed for you.

 

[alliebee]

It worked for me though. I lost more than 2 stone in 12 weeks...a lot if people on here lchf and some have lost over 50lbs!

 

[ally1]

Low carb is fab ally, as alliebee says weight seems to drop off!! (I've lost 3st 3lbs in 18 weeks) I thought you were already trying to do lchf? Are you wanting to to do it better?
