I think the stress will have upped it also enzyme lag as I rarely eat that many carbs in one go. I had a smaller portion earlier in week and was at 5.1 at 3 hrs so guess just too much, too much stress and too much rotten cold virus.
 
I've had a miserable day. A dear friend with cancer who has been in hospice this last week died today. Sensible food went out the window. 12.8 at almost bedtime. The whole family were with him at the end. So sad

So sorry. Have a hug. Such a rotten time of year to have it happen at too, though no time is great to lose a loved one and friend. X

I've only tested blood sugars occasionally since Tuesday and they've ranged between 8 - 10.1.
Thats with having a cold and temperature and in bed the last two days. Im hoping I'm over the worst of it now. Still dont feel like eating anything except buttered toast but I've been drinking loads water.

Missing you guys. Hope everyone's keeping well. :)

Kitty lots better today. Vet ringing later to check she's ok. Thinks she has eaten something that hasn't agreed with her. She is lying on fed with me feeling as sorry for herself as I am. X

Hi @alliebee, sorry to hear your sad news. Loosing someone is always hard but I think it's worst at this time of the year.
 
Yesterday
5.1 fasting (lowest one yet)
6.5 after breakfast (blueberries - spike me more than other berries)
5.8 before lunch
7.1 after 2hrs (where did that come from? My normal Saturday lunch. Can only put it down to strenuous cleaning before testing)
5.3 after 3 hours
4.9 before tea
Tea not tested
5.2 at bedtime

Note to self. No more strenuous cleaning. ;)
