[QUOTE="Resurgam, post: 1853413, member: 355878"] The timing is odd - usually the testing time is two hours after starting to eat. Stress will affect your BG reading as your liver will react by releasing glucose in case you need to fight or flee from danger. However - after eating the weetabix, which are a high carb food, with the sugary liquids - milk contains lactose, and lemon juice contains fructose (the label probably said no added sugar - they like a joke) you are bound to see a rise which 'normal' testing might well miss as it is rapid, causes the release of insulin and so, if you are lucky it drops again fairly swiftly.
