Type 2s: What have you eaten today?

bacon egg tomato mushroom
two slices of corned beef , beetroot two boiled eggs
took mum to the doctors got home was ravished so just ate two slices of bacon and a small bar of dark chocolate and double cream coffee .
I do not normally snack but felt shaky and really hungry , feeling better now . Blood sugar is 7 .
 
Tea
B: Berries & Greek yogurt, 2 small pieces of smoked haddock poached in water.
Milky coffee
Tea
L: Ham & tomato on Hovis Nimble wholemeal, scotch egg
Tea
Tea
T: Pork sausage & cauliflower cheese, copious amounts of red wine
 
This morning I had a bowl of buckwheat oatmeal with a bit of maple syrup and milk this evening I had 3 eggs 2 sausage some hash browns sprinkled a little blue cheese over the eggs 1 piece of bread and a coffee this will be all my food for the day I normally don't take lunch
 
Today I had for breakfast: bullet proof coffee/skinny syrup/Walden's farms coffee creamer (all low carb), 2 slices Keto bread toasted/butter/little dab of low carb marmalade and one egg, between 8:30 and 9:00.

For lunch, around 12:30 or so, a small amount of homemade yogurt, a few almonds sprinkled over and one Keto peanut butter ball. My blood two hours later was 10.1. WHAT?

Would eating too soon after breakfast be the reason? It's depressing when this happens because I don't want my A1C to go up in March. I've had a lot of stress since mid-December, but I'm not eating anything that is not low-carb. What am I doing wrong? I haven't been able to get out for our normal walks because our weather is extremely cold and there's lot of ice. Lack of exercise may not be helping much. Any thoughts or tips are welcome.
