[QUOTE="Alexandra100, post: 2423572, member: 429870"] What time did you go to bed? One possibility among many is that you did not finish digesting your meal before you slept, so its effects belatedly hit your circulation next morning. I have read that once we lie down, our digestion slows drastically. Another time you might like to test before eating and then just before bed as well as when you get up. I presume your 13.0 was taken fasting, before you ate or drank anything except water? There is also Dr Richrd K Bernstein's "Chinese restaurant effect". He claims that eating a lot of anything, even pebbles, will raise bg. I can't say if 300g meat qualifies as eating a lot. Did you feel stuffed afterwards? He treats both T1s and T2s and even for the latter he often prescribes (sometimes tiny) doses of insulin to cover the protein they are eating. I strongly recommend reading the free extracts from his great book [URL]http://www.diabetes-book.com/read-online-diabetes-solution/[/URL] and even buying a copy, or you can watch his free "Dibetes University" videos on Youtube.
