[QUOTE="Paul41, post: 2641921, member: 503348"] So I’m a couple of weeks into this odyssey and still trying to understand what’s happening to my body. I’m using a CGM and in the main it appeared that everything was going in the right direction, I’m eating a low carb diet and I’m losing weight . Part of my reason for using a CGM is by eating / testing foods that might spike my BG and thereby not including them in my diet. I tried eating Rye bread and this appears to have caused my issues. There was no spike but a delay followed by a steady rise in BG, but it never abated. My BG had previously been low overnight but not after eating this bread, BG remained high. I assume this is insulin resistance at work? This morning my BG is chugging along at 6.5, it’s not dipping under 6 that it was previously but it’s better than it was yesterday. I’ve decided to not eat any grains for a time and continue with the low carb plan. No experiments with different carbs/ foods, at least for now! Am I understanding this correctly please ? The attached pic is my BG yesterday. I had consumed the Rye bread the evening before and this is what occurred! Any advice?[ATTACH=full]63209[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
