@s_k_s
Apologies I was latish testing today and forgot to post, but :
Fasting (Friday) : 7.0

Rest of the day still high but fairly nice and flat again:
6.8 -> 7.2, 6.8 -> 6.7

I definitely think this is where my body's most happy to be (unfortunately!):eek:

Pleasure. We all learn from one another on here. I am trying to keep carbs down to a minimum but yes I have drifted every now and then. Not sure on the potatoes. Haven't had them at all this year but maybe someone else has and could advise? I suppose the only way to check would be to test a small amount first? I think that chap in the diet doctor link experimented with this. I shall have a look see later.

Hola @Susikav

Yes he did he went on a carb weekend. Worth a read when you have a mo. Also look at the comments posted - split decision on spuds.[/QUOTE]
I am going to try one spoon of buttery mash... :) If it spikes too badly I shall kick it into touch... I have been low-carbing for 6 months and I will stay with it, but think I shall look forward to adding some carbs.. :)

Welcom MeToo... :) You seem to already be doing well... Are you low-carbing? There are some lovely recipes in the Low Carb Recipe thread...
 
5.6 again yesterday and 5.3 today :singing: Sinus infection almost sorted I think...

Thank you S.K.S once again for your post... :)

Hola

hope all's well - found that link for you. Found it from a post by spiker about insulin index.

Thank you Baruney... This is a really good article... it is easy to assimilate, unlike some of the more scientific ones you plough through... Basically we should all be eating like cavemen for optimum health.. :) Paleo diet is perfect for diabetics - and non-diabetics - as it's very natural for humans...
 
5.8 this morning - must have been the two biscuits last night that wantd eating and it would have been rude to deny their request!
 
5.0 on this rainy morning on the Belgian coast. A little vacation is treating my morning levels very well. Off to Vimy for another commemorative ceremony. Hopefully the weather is better there.
