[QUOTE="Bluetit1802, post: 1609767, member: 94045"] Just use your Libre and your meter to guide you. Look for the reading immediately before you eat and the one 2 hours after first bite. If the difference is more than 2mmol/l there were too many carbs in that meal. Keeping a detailed food diary including portion sizes and recording the before and after rises alongside will help you work out which are your danger foods and in what quantities. You can play around with portion sizes, but be prepared to eliminate some of your food choices. When you are learning your actual levels aren't as important as the amount by which you rise and the length of time you stay up there. [/QUOTE]
