Message: <blockquote data-quote="Oldvatr" data-source="post: 1441889" data-attributes="member: 196898">Well, I surived an attack by the Easter Bunny.  We were descended upon by my family of Carboholic Cormorants for most of last week, and it was impossible to stem the flow of 'goodies and treats' that ensued.  For example, on Easter Snnday, I started with my morning meds, e,g, Metformin but no other bgl lowering meds.  I then had an extended breakfast comprising 2 x Hot X buns (on topic) then 2 slices of toast and marmalade, followed later by 2 generous chunks of chocolate fudge brownies.  Then I had a whole bar of hazlenut peppered chocolate, then a small and a large Easter choc egg.  Then I took my evening med 1x Gliclazide, and tested my pre-meal bgl.  It was 7.4 mmol/l/then we had our main meal which was roast leg of lamb, roast spuds, roast parsnips, honey glazed carrots, and Celeriac mash (the LC part).  Then pudding was a cheesecake slice with clotted cream.  As you can see I did not spare the horses.  Rather be hanged for a horse than a rabbit.  My 2hour PP reading was 6.1 (rechecked later at 6.1 again) and my 4hr PP was 4,9.  Whoopee !!!!  This mornings waking bgl was 5.1.So I am doing well on my diet .  18 months ago I was peaking above 32, with fasting bgl in the low 20's, then I went LCHF and now I have seen off Xmas and Easter in style.  Resolved, maybe, cured? = No, Not yet, but better.  My GP phoned me a couple of days ago and wants me to drop the Glic completely.  I think I will split the dose since my midday levels are running higher than I want, and I need to replace the morning Glic I dropped at Xmas  So I seem to be not too bad with Hot X buns</blockquote>
