So after getting some very helpful advice on here, I’ve been looking at Diet Doctor, logging my foods with My Fitness Pal and have bought a glucometer. It seems however that even after waking my blood sugars are high (over 7.5) and it feels very disheartening. I’ve been on holiday recently so alcohol will have had an impact. Last night we saw friends and I drank Prosecco and I’ve also noticed I feel a lot worse the next day since lowering my carb intake in general.
I’ve made a decision to ditch booze for a while especially with the results I’ve been recently given. I know I have complete control over making positive changes but I’m just feeling a bit sorry for myself. My blood sugars aren’t in normal ranges when I test and I really hope these can come down by. How long does it take for things to start normalising? I’ve read that with alcohol the liver concentrates on detoxification rather than dealing with glucose so levels can remain high.
