Hi,
Was diagnosed a week ago, on Saturday my codefree meter arrived, yesterday Sunday I started to test. Morning pre meal reading was 7.3 (Breakfast: bacon, mushrooms, 2 medium eggs and 1 slice of the small Burgen loaf.) post meal 2 hrs later 7.6
Skipped lunch?
Sunday dinner was Roast pork (crackling Mmmm) roasted med vegetables and 2 roasted potatoes pre meal 7.1
post meal 8.1 (I suspect spuds?)
This morning pre meal 7.6 Breakfast same as above.
On Saturday when I first received the meter, I tested and my reading was 6.1, so it is rising- could it be stress? I know it is early days but I am not the most patient of people and I am finding it very difficult to eat just high fat (I will persevere) I tried a cake with whipped cream and strawberry using a recipe with almond flour, the fruit and cream were great, the cake mixture was pretty tasteless and I miss bread, toast etc, slightly off piste, I think I am rambling...................
Really, Really hard and depressing. If anyone knows a decent bread recipe? Also tried Cauliflower mash YUK!
Is there hope????
Going for a lie down
