[QUOTE="Member496333, post: 2438356"] If you’re hungry you should eat. Sorry to state the obvious but starving yourself won’t do you much good. Try a small fatty meal with a good amount of protein. An easy fallback option is a tin of mackerel fillets with some pitted olives and plenty of olive oil all over the lot. Glucose impact should be minimal. Don’t be afraid to eat more hearty meals and leave a longer gap between them. Going hungry in an attempt to lower blood glucose is just going to cause your metabolism to slow down and make everything worse. Larger meals will of course leave a bigger immediate footprint but your metabolism will thank you in the long term. I feel your pain. Been there got the pyjamas. Nothing worse than being afraid of food and resenting what it does to your blood glucose. We are all different and find different solutions but please don’t go hungry. It’s not the answer. Good luck!
