[QUOTE="ElNevera, post: 2100608, member: 496579"] So yesterday I started fasting at 3pm and my BG was 8. During the fast I only drank peppermint tea and water (with a slice of lemon). Before breaking my fast (ended up being 18 hours) this morning my BG was 9.2. I ate, 4 fried eggs 4 slices of ham 4 slices of mature cheddar I had a tea with whole milk and then took 1g of modified release Metformin. 2 hours later my blood was 10. Since then I've had another cup of tea and a glass of squash. My BG is now 8.4 My plan is to eat a meal around 3pm again and then start fasting again. I don't think I've mentioned but I am 39, 6' 4" tall and am pretty broad in build. I'm currently 20st and at my worst was pushing 25st a few years back. The 'ideal' weight for me is around 12st apparently but I don't think that would work for my as my new fancy scales say my skeletal muscular mass is just about 8st.... Whatever that means! I cannot currently exercise due to my feet problems but hoping that changes soon. I'm thinking of taking up some form or weight training. Thanks [/QUOTE]
