Thanks Guzz I should have mentioned those numbers were lunchtime so tomo morning might be quite different! Meter arrived between breakfast and lunch. Fingers crossed it wont be disappointing.
Rather high in carbs I would think @ 79 g per every 100 gGood old fashioned shredded wheat works for me

I’m off to get this bread tomorrow. I’ve been having the occasional slice of Hovis low carb but the liv life has less calories and more importantly lower carbs, it’s nice to have a slice of toast for a changeJust got my testing gear. Had 2 slices Liv Life Seeded (from Waitrose) with real butter. 5.1 before and two hours later 6.2. That solves breakfast worries. Do I need to test if I repeat this meal? Am so excited by my meter dont even mind finger pricking. It just makes sense!
I have peanut butter on celery. I think it's yummy, but I realise not everyone likes celery. It's pretty good on fennel too, but easier to spread on celery.T2. I was trying to find something I liked for breakfast. Now I will move on to trying it with peanut or almond butter just to see what the meter does. I have my second review in two weeks and hoping my hba1c will improve (prev 53) and my cholestral which was over 7 though I need to get the breakdown of that from surgery. The DN was so keen to put me on Metformin and Statins I need something to defend myself with.

This bread is smaller and more dense than the Hovis version so best toasted in my opinion. But second trial today gave me before/after DIFFERENCE of 1.2. Chew it well as bit dry but not unpleasant if you like seeded bread.I’m off to get this bread tomorrow.
