You should be measuring just before a meal and then 2hrs afterwards, so your reading of 24 was probably higher or much higher - not good!I can't say if the Low Carb program is worth the subscription fee. I went Low Carb without using any fancy recipes. If you like simple food then I can't see why you should need it. Just swap out high carb food (like Weetabix) for lower (or zero) carb food like cold meat, eggs, cheese, full-fat greek yogurt with a handful of berries and/or nuts. If in doubt google the carbs (net carbs in the case of USA sites) in whichever food you fanct.For me it was meat, fish, eggs, hard cheeses, full-fat dairy, nuts, avocado, olives (& Oil), tofu,  plus leafy greens and other low carb veg such as cauliflower, broccoli, courgette, cucumber etc do it for me. But I did test them all extensively with my BG meter in order to find if I could eat carrot, parsnip, apple etc. - Answer was no. not much.</blockquote>
