Morning all from wet and windy Scotland. Had a long lie on Sunday with FBG 4.9 at 11.30am I was feeling good so thought I would try a fast until my evening meal of roast chicken and veg. I was walking around the supermarket later that afternoon and bam...started to shake, lightheaded and became very disorientated. I didn't have my meter with me so my partner grabbed a bag of jelly babies and opened them there and then as he thought I was about to faint. Had to get a taxi home and BG tested at 8.2 (highest it has been in weeks). I felt pretty rubbishy for the rest of the evening. Was there anything I could have done to avoid this? I've been feeling great with LCHF and readings have been pretty consistently in the 5s. Jeez I hate hypos!
