[QUOTE="DanW13, post: 2319583, member: 531379"] Hi Carpetsalesman, Yes I’m pretty amazed at how good the scores have been so far & not quite sure what to make of it versus my original prediabetic reading of 43. Could my test have been just a spike or perhaps elevated by stress? One thing I did find this week was when I was stressed on Wednesday my readings were higher, not massively so but noticeably higher nonetheless, so stress clearly has an impact. I’ve got another official Hba1c test at end of October so won’t do anything too fancy in terms of checking v danger foods until after that. I’ve a 2nd Libre sensor that I’ll probably attach after that test & depending on the results may play around with a few foods during those 14 days to see the impact they have. I will need to up my calorie intake a bit to stop losing weight as I’m almost at my target weight now, but want to do it in a way that doesn’t lead to excessive bs spikes. Bit worried the bigger the spike the greater pressure it puts on your insulin sensitivity, isn’t that in essence how we became prediabetic in the first place?? So the lower the spikes the better?? all the best Dan [/QUOTE]
