[QUOTE="eggs11, post: 1723700, member: 468168"] Hi [USER=219467]@bulkbiker[/USER] - I guess on reflection it was relatively high in carbs - it was 1/2 an M&S stuffed pepper which does have a bit of rice in - something I don't usually eat - but mainly cheese, its says on myfitness pal that is 18g (My rushed calculations in my head before eating had it at more like 14g) - plus a dollop of houmous, then a large amount of green leaf salad with apple cider vinegar dressing. I thought my response to it was good in that I was back down to the 6s after 2 hours - I didn't realise carbs could affect me in this way too and just keep bs slightly raised for ages. I will go back through my food logs to see if when this has happened before involves slightly more carbs. Generally I don't eat any starches other than the odd oatcake - 1 oatcake at a time is fine, 2 is not. This has taught me not to get complacent and think a 'healthy' stuffed pepper will be ok! edited to add - looks also like I need to check all meals at 3 hours post-meal for a while [/QUOTE]
