sorry I dont know what you mean?I doubt very much a single reading from any given meal indicates anything other than what your meter said in the moment.

Nice post thank you for those words. Very true and very good advice. ThanksCarb creep is a slippery slope. Getting cocky won't last long when blood sugars slide back up again. Thing is, just keep yourself mindful of what works for you in the long run, and what doesn't. A one-off over Christmas and such, or when needs must, whatever.... But once it's a regular occurrence, it can be problematic. Right now, you've gained ground and your reaction to the meal proved it has been working indeed. That means you're on the right track, and would do well to keep it up.
You indicate that the numbers after eating your MacD's indicated pre-diabetes. Whilst you may be in pre-diabetes, perhaps even lower, or perhaps still in the T2 diagnostic ranges, all that your numbers after your MacD meal indicate is how that meal went for you. You might even find very different numbers if you repeated the exercise.sorry I dont know what you mean?
Basic question: why are you doing this?Blow out yesterday, on the way home Cheese & Ham Toastie from Pret Manger, 50g Carb at 4:30pm, 5pm McDonalds Tripple Cheese burger and a Big Mac, but no fries.
2hr 15 min reading 7.2, 3hr 7.0 and 4 hr 5.7.
It's a genuine question - are you hungry? are there no other alternatives? is it an experiment, or are you telling yourself that?Not good I know... I find it hard to be disciplined all the time. Maybe I'm not eating enough at lunch then blowing out on my way home.
You are correct mate. I have a perfect weekend of 4s 5s 6s then I usually go sabotage mode. I need to control this and save these for Xmas etc..It's a genuine question - are you hungry? are there no other alternatives? is it an experiment, or are you telling yourself that?
You've done so well, and yet you're sabotaging yourself - that's how it looks to me.
Not tested Mac Ds at 1hr mark. Usually on the train home then from London to my home town outside. But good advice I need to eliminate. The first two months I did v well with the diet hence the Hba1c went from 82 to 30. Third month June I have been dipping in/out my old ways.Have you tried testing at 1 hour, it maybe that you are in double figures and seeing that might motivate you stop the self sabotage. If you really can’t avoid the Maccie Ds then take the temptation out at source and order you food without a bun and a side salad instead of fries, order 2 if you have to to fill you up. if you don’t buy the carbs you can’t eat the carbs
