[QUOTE="jjraak, post: 2033885, member: 493719"] Hi [USER=503535]@Andy J-R[/USER] cheers...:D..;) for me it's on wake up as i wait for kettle to boil. once up and about the liver can dump glucose into the blood to help us manage our day before intaking foods, so i think scores a bit more 'natural' early on. i also test pre meal..and 1 to 2 hours after..( i normally test at 2 hours, but have tested earlier if foods an unknown or one to be wary of ) so i end up with minimum of 5 most days..but once tested many meals do not require the test as you will know the effect it has on your bloods.so you could be down to just one or two a day..FBG is the one i'd skip if testing was a real burden. the foods IF they spike you would be more of a danger, imho, if you didn't spot them early and stop having them. Good luck on your road back to better health. it may not be paved with gold, but for me it certainly is tarmacked with LCHF . [/QUOTE]
