[QUOTE="Divia, post: 2227821, member: 520424"] I appreciate you sharing your experience. I've tested with food, now that I have a monitor. After the lchf meals, my BG doesn't go up, or very little. I mean meals with less than 10g carbs. Yesterday I had a spike up to 128.5 mg/dL after eating bad, high carb cheesecake with 46 g. My BG between meals and upon waking up is low 90s, high 80s. I don't know what to make of it, but what I do understand is that high BG like that is bad for us and it seems that if I avoid high carbs, I'll be below 100 mg/dL. It's too soon to really conclude on anything, because I'm new to measuring BG and need to see if it's really a rule, instead of a particular bad day/good day thing. I also understood you're talking about good carb foods, like lentils and oats, not bad carb food like a cake. I understood. In a few meals, I'll try lentils and see how my BG reacts. But I must say my body seems to agree with lchf. I've noticed improvements in other areas. Perhaps I need a balance. Because before, my fat intake was very low and we need fats. But I'm decided that the starting point will be lchf. Then I'll try a little higher carb foods and see what. Like a little lentil dish, if my body can deal with the carbs. Yesterday, I went back to the gym and people noticed I had lost weight. They think I lost a lot of weight. I haven't! I found it interesting. Looking at myself in the mirror, I've seen what they saw. I looked slimmer. I can't explain. I lost only 1 kg (about 2 pounds). I can still lose weight, because my BMI was above 23. I have to check where it is today, in view of the mirror thing. But I'll watch it to avoid going unhealthy thin. Thank you for sharing! [/QUOTE]
