[QUOTE="Deleted member 371625, post: 2208666"] Hi there There are a lot of carbs in that meal. Naan approx. 70g carbs for average size Popadums 4 or 5g carbs each so not too bad Chutney about 20g carbs for 3 spoons Cider about 40g carbs for a pint Curry don't know but a pathia is very heavy on the onions Rice 50-100g depending on portion size Naan, cider or rice are most likely culprits but you are back to a great reading pretty soon. Your meal had 200g plus of carbs which is a hell of a lot even for a non diabetic. I don't do low carb myself and have has all my reading in the non-diabetic range for the last 3 years, but this is more than I would have in a day. There is nothing in your meal that I wouldn't eat (though half a naan OR a small rice would do it for me). I just wouldn't do them all at once. You are doing the right thing testing, but just take it a little easier on the carbs. As you were soon back at 4.5 you obviously can tolerate carbs though if you are a wee bit more careful. [/QUOTE]
