Hi all, No lectures please just discuss
I went out for lunch today to a restaurant and ate:
Half Roast Chicken, Chips (left the salad as it had a horrible dressing on it - can't believe they ruined the flavours)
Large portion of Bread and Butter Pudding with custard
2 glasses of diet coke and I ate a whole lime from my glasses and my wife's drinks
A pretty standard fat boy meal for a norm... so what happened to my BG levels (I have seen this pattern before)
at 1.25 hour I was 8.1 mmol/l - Was pretty happy with that as a peak
at 2 hours I was at 8.1 mmol/l - shame would have liked to be lower
at 3 hours I was at 8.1 mmol/l - now this is strange a complete flat top
at 3.5 hours I was at 5.1mmol/l
What I think is happening is my body has control over the rate my digestive system allows glucose to be released into my blood stream such that my pancreas can handle it. Not sure the mechanism here. The last time I saw this flat top was after another very large meal.
Has anyone else come across this before?
