I had a fasting blood glucose reading of 8.6 mmol this morning then took my lixisenatide and metformin as well as my mood stabilisers and ate a massive meat feast melted cheese deep pan pizza, had several mugs of coffee each with 3 sugars and Coffeemate, then some glasses of tap water, and later on than that at about oneish I had a take away of a lamb doner kebab with everything. I feel like I've really overdone it today and this makes my depression in my Asperger Syndrome worse.

 

[Naomi425]

Eaten today:

Nothing til dinner then bacon with spirallised courgette and konjac noodles or whatever the 0 carb noodles are called with Roquefort melted in. BG two hours after 7.5 pretty good but was still hungry so just eaten 3x livlong bread with benecol. Apparently that's 34 g of carbs for the day and just over 1100 calories

 

[julie56]

Breakfast was the usual berries and yoghurt with flaxseed. Lunch 1 round Bergen bread with cheese and cucumber filling. Dinner was steak salad. Bg before evening meal was 8.0, a bit higher than I was hoping for.
