[QUOTE="gefmayhem, post: 135772, member: 9742"] Thanks for all the information folks. A bit of further info. A do low carb and usually manage a self test average of 7 to 8. After going off the rails a bit (a lot) at Christmas and during a January holiday, I went back to low carb. General work day food. Breakfast - cheese Lunch - cold meat, salad and sour cream with chive dip. Low sugar jelly Dinner - fish or meat with veg and dip. Snacks peanuts or a few squares of Green and Blacks 85%. With this diet I was having extreme difficulty getting my 2 hour after meal readings into single figures. Eat 2 oatcakes - 7 to 8 grams of carb and I would be up to 13 to 15. I actually ate some cake one day and hit 25.2. In all these cases the readings were double what I was getting in September/October. I've been told I will be on 10 units a day, late inthe evening. I start on Friday. cheers [/QUOTE]
