[QUOTE="Cocosilk, post: 2109522, member: 501623"] You're doing better than I am in that case, with your levels I mean. I don't think I'm eating 150g of carbs a day. I know I'm not. I did eat my first bowl of steel cut oats today to see what would happen and my spikes were 1h 6.8 mmol / 1.5h 7.7 mmol / 2h 7.2 mmol / 2.5h 5.9 mmol. An hour before eating I was 4.6 mmol. That was 250g of cooked steel cut oats. I think around half of that are carbs but not sure if cooked oats have the same carbs as the dry ones. I've only been adding a few extra carbs this past few days. I'm trying to work out if my insulin resistance is now due to keto or if I actually have some kind of diabetes still (I was gestationally diabetic and gave birth a few months ago.) I screwed up my postpartum GTT because I didn't carb load enough beforehand. My fasting and 2h readings were okay but my one hour was 12.1 mmol... I also want to try and reduce sat. fats and move to more olive, avo, and macadamia nut oils as well as fish because my cholesterol is 8.7 mmol.. Meanwhile I just ate pork belly this evening. [/QUOTE]
