Message: <blockquote data-quote="Deleted member 567281" data-source="post: 2579975">For those of us using mmol/L123 mg/dl = 6.8117 mg/dl = 6.5111 mg/dl = 6.296 mg/dl = 5.3I think that looks pretty normal, though I'm quite new to this myself. The chicken soup probably had more carbs than you realise unless you made it yourself and you know what went into it (thickeners, etc.)My understanding is that by two hours after eating, you BG is supposed to go back to base level, ie. near fasting levels (I'm sure someone will correct me if I'm wrong.) I'm getting similar results after meals. Do you know what your starting/fasting level was? It's best to check right before the meal and two hours after -and if you get similar results, it means your body reacted well to the food you ate and brought you BG back to base level - not below, cause that means a sugar crash! Checking the levels in-between this two-hour period will show you the glucose curve, so you can see how high you were spiked, so that could be valuable info as well.Where did you buy/get your CGM? I'm thinking of getting one too to experiment for a couple of weeks, but I've seen some reviews where people said that they stopped working after just a few days and I can't afford to waste that sort of money. Until then, I just keep pricking my fingers! Was it easy to implant?</blockquote>
