[QUOTE="DavidGrahamJones, post: 1729128, member: 245335"] I started LC?F (for me low carb is the important bit) about 5 years ago and that was fine until 15 months ago when my BG readings started to creep up, despite sticking to low carb (about 40 gms per day). The body doesn't need carbs to make glucose. More recently I have started trying a VLCD as well as keeping LC and something I have noticed is that if I have a meal at about 19:00 and then skip breakfast the following morning, apart from the almost normal liver dump, if I do anything strenuous, like digging snow, walking to the shops, using the static bike, my BG will go up even further. We're obviously quite different in that I'm male and sadly twice your weight, but diabetes doesn't seem to be an exact science as we all have different experiences. Your walking alone must cover your 10,000 steps a day (a la NHS) and with horse riding and Palates, you're getting some good exercise. In my experience of my BG, morning liver dumps and exercise on little or no food will adversely affect my BG. [/QUOTE]
