[QUOTE="ianf0ster, post: 2317124, member: 506169"] Hi [USER=527375]@Ljjordan[/USER] Although it seems most likely that you are a Type 1 rather than Type 2, I think it need mentioning that a breakfast of porridge (when most are less tolerant to carbs isn't a good start to the day unless you need it to cover your Insulin injection. I realise that most GPs and nurses say that whole grains such as the Oats in porridge (assuming made from scratch with rolled oats) is healthy, I found they spiked my BG and so I had to switch to a zero carb breakfast. And few people manage to eat Porridge without either milk or sugar (and milk contains lactose which is a sugar). I tried both boiled eggs and cheese. I found that both of them would actually reduce my fasting BG if it was abnormally high in a morning , for example reduce it from 7.8 or 8.0 down to something just under 7.0. [/QUOTE]
