[QUOTE="JoKalsbeek, post: 2118478, member: 401801"] Those numbers look alright, though milkshakes and chocolates are fatty and they could slow down the peak. (As in, it'd come later or your bloodsugars stay elevated longer, but don't go as high as they would've without the fats. Usually when someone eats something particularly fatty with carbs, it's advisable to check at the 3 hour mark too). Also, I seem to remember you lost some weight, which might's influenced your insulin resistance some. All in all, I think you've made great progress... Just sorry about feeling ill. Did you test then? Usually when you're feeling off, blood sugars go up, would've been interesting to see what happened. (Though I could completely imagine you weren't feeling up to finger pricks...! I just know what happens to me when I get the flu or an infection. But with low carb I don't go above 9 still, even with steroid shots. So that's kind of useful to you to know, maybe. I dunno.) Vitamin D deficiency was quite severe indeed...! That must've had one heck on an impact. Glad those numbers are going up now. No harm in a little extra salmon or tuna though. tastes better than just supplements. ;) All in all you're looking good... Just keep in mind that if you go back to this way of eating permanently, you're going to force your pancreas to overproduce insulin again and the insulin-resistance, weight and all will be right back where you started. I get the wanting to experiment, but do know when to stop eh. And keep testing. [/QUOTE]
