[QUOTE="Donnadoobie, post: 1125212, member: 199062"] I have been low carbing since last August. For the last couple of weeks I have noticed a rise in the levels, not really moving during the morning and then still in the 6's a few hours after eating. For example BFG this morning was 6.6 ( higher than normal) breakfast, at 8.00 was two eggs, scrambled with a slice of ham, at 12.00 it was 6.3. Lunch was a babyleaf salad with 3 cherry tomatoes and a lean burger with a tablespoon of mayo. I didn't get a chance to test again in the afternoon. Dinner at 6.00 was two chicken thighs with mixed veg ( aubergines, courgettes, Peppers, red onion,) in a tomato sauce made with tinned tomatoes and tomato puree with 4 sprouts. Went to a dance class for an hour from 7.30-8.30 came back and watched TV with some water and got into bed at 10.30, tested 6.5! How? I have had onions before without problems and this seems to be happening all the time now. My Fitness Pal says 36g carbs. I am beginning to hate doing this when nothing improves. I have done low carb, 5:2, The 800 cal Blood Sugar Diet, exercise almost every day. What am I doing wrong? I feel like giving up. [/QUOTE]
