Righto I ahd a bit of a diabetic burnout toward the end of the summer wrong food , missed meds , beer etc........... and did not even test for a month or so, anyhow when I tested my bloods were in the mid high teens


So buckled down about 6 weeks ago diet very clean , low carb -100 grams a day, and then going lower down to 50g now...........

My bloods slowly went down and lost a stone until I had my first normalish bloods a few days back ( 7.3) although they are still high in the mornings 9.0 to 9.5........


So did my regular workout earlier (weights) and then had my post workout smoothie as below


.........................................................................................cals,carbs,fat,protein
MyProtein - Impact Diet Whey (Banana) , 29 g (2 scoop) 106 4 2 18
Tesco - Country Store Frozen Mixed Fruits, 37 g 14 3 0 0
Generic - Banana **, 0.5 Banana (126g) 55 15 0 1
Asda - Greek Style Natural Yogurt, 65 g 81 3 6 3
Protein Dynamix - Crunchy Peanut Butter, 1 serving 298 6 12 15
Rowse Honey - Liquid (Runny) Honey, 0.25 tablespoon 18 5 0 0
Asda Smart Price - Uht Skimmed Milk (Correct), 350 ML 130 17 1 13



However had to use normal milk as I had run out of almond milk and added a very small amount of honey as a treat and so had more carbs in than usual a total of 52g............



so just under an hour later I tested expecting bloods in the low teens and got ............................5.3 what the.......... I have not been that low this year..............


Just weird ...probably the most carbs in one meal in the last 6 weeks (and they are naughty carbs) so why the heck did I get 5.3
