[QUOTE="briped, post: 2009991, member: 472718"] I don't know if I can give you any help, so I'm aiming for the support part. Please don't compare yourself with everyone else. Compare yourself with yourself, as you know, we're all different. 2 months is not a long time at all, so my rule #1 - patience. They do say that FBGs are the last to come down. In the beginning of Feb. mine had been in their 4s for a few weeks, and then suddenly one morning ... 7.3. They can be so unpredictable, and there's not much you can do about it but diet, exercise, grin and bear it. My other rule is called "rule #2", curiously enough. Soul searching. Did I overstep my boundaries with those almonds yesterday? Did I have anything else that might have been a bit too much on top of everything else I had yesterday? That keto mug microwave bread for example? (Mind you, I am very carb sensitive, and aim for below 16g a day). Am I on the slippery slope back to having too many carbs compared to what my body seems to be able to cope with? Not yours, Starfish - mine! You have to find your own limits. Last night I went to bed with a reading of 6.6, which is over the top for me, but then I'd had a late supper and would you believe it, perhaps as much as 100 g of cauli rice, naughty girl! I have no idea if that was helpful at all, but I do find that on days when I've been out for a walk my readings are great. Walks really make a difference to me, so is that something you might take up, once the weather is a bit more pleasant, I mean :) [/QUOTE]
