For dinner I had I went to a cafe I had a small bowl or organic olives, barbecued ribs cooked in a sauce (don't know what sort with chill) served with a generous serving of lettuce. I treated myself to a a piece of orange and poppy seed cake.
Started eating at about 8.45pm and finished about 9.20pm.
Checked with my meter at 10.20pm and got three different results 5.7, 6.7 & 6.3.
Given meters are only an indicator and given the three different figures I'll go with 6.3 as being probably nearest to the being the most accurate.
Last night I checked my meter 2 hours after eating a sausage and bean dish served with salad.
My readings were 4.7 & 4.8
Whilst I am not pre diabetic, I would be (maybe still am) heading that way but have taken up low carb eating to try and fend it off. Have also lost about 7 kg in the past 8 weeks or so.
Do these readings sound OK?
5.7, 6.7 & 6.3 1 hour after finishing a piece of cake & 4.7 & 4.8 2 hours after a low carb meal (I don't know what was in the sausages)?
