[QUOTE="AlcalaBob, post: 1665690, member: 30529"] I think this is most likely a liver dump, the BG dropping below the trigger level and gluconeogenesis kicking in, probably just before I got up and then there being low insulin to deal with it. I cut out the shakes today but I don't see them as the problem particularly. I haven't had breakfast for many years and the first shake has normally been around 1-ish. This rise is quite new and I haven't seen it since going on the ND. It occurred before I would have had the shake so I think the liver has to be responsible. I haven't come across any other account of this happening but I guess it must have, or perhaps wasn't noticed. I think that with continued low energy intake this should just sort itself out so I'll wait a few days and see. Broccoli soup was a pretty safe substitute for today so I'll stay steady and see what happens tomorrow morning. If the BG is still raised during the day after a few more days, I might have to consider something else, maybe getting up earlier and eating something, but I'm postponing that for now. Staying hopeful for now. [/QUOTE]
