Been dieting fairly aggressively to lose a stone in one month and am now several pounds under my overweight/normal weight threshold.
Am planning to throttle back on the diet in time for Christmas so today had I had a low carb breakfast and light low carb lunch (probably less than 10g carbs in total and no carbs in drinks at all and then this evening a roast dinner. I had the meat, two medium roast potatoes, some carrots, broccoli and a piece of parsnip. I didn't have any pudding but I did have 50g of 50% cocoa solids dark chocolate after the meal. I only had a mug of fruit tea afterwards. Estimated carbs: about 70g, Before the meal using an SD Codefree meter I was 5.5 and 2 hours afterwards, 8.8. How does that rate? This was the highest carb meal I've had in about 6 weeks.
