[QUOTE="Resurgam, post: 2459284, member: 355878"] I'd recommend testing far more than once a week so you can sort out what you ought to eat to keep your blood glucose in normal numbers. Testing before starting to eat and then two hours later should show you what amount of carbs to aim for, and also any anomalies - I can't eat porridge without seeing a spike, but for others it is fine. I can also get more carbs out of peas and beans than the listed value - about 180 percent is my best guess, so I have a half portion when I do eat them. It is the sugar and starches which are the carbohydrates - fat is fine if it from natural sources. [/QUOTE]
