nuts...snacking on nuts has driven up my carbs to about 40-50grams per day..as a result blood sugars have been in the high sixes/low sevens for many, many weeks now. 6.7 this morning..driving ME nuts. been drawing many lines in the sand without success. stops now (i hope). will try kicking the nut habit with some willpower, butter & black coffee.

I've always found nuts keep my bs lower....mayb worth checking carb content per nut type? I believe cashews are mire if a guilty pleasure but still way better than some snacks.

4.2 this morning (25/05/15)

Had a low reading of 2.7 last night before dinner! - I reckon it's a rogue reading from my meter.

Me too on the nuts. Love them but so easy to over indulge and don't get me started on the red wine!

Have you tried adding coconut oil to your coffee to make it bullet proof?

5.1 this morning. Expected it higher as I had a burger at the footy again and a sandwich on the way home yesterday which pushed me well over 150g of carbs. I did walk a long way too though (17k according to my fitness band) so that probably has a lot to do with today's good reading

Hola phil

Is that 17 km or 17,000 steps? Either way very impressive. Come and join us on our virtual run walk - Land's End to John o'groats in the exercise forum. I stopped off in our pub break in Bath last week a bit too long but hoping to add a fair few miles this week.

Good morning all. I had a 6.5 fasting reading after a 6.1 bedtime one.

Sable_Jan · May 25, 2015

Good morning all, have a great bank holiday.
5.3 for me

Yep cashews are pretty dire. I think it has something to do with it not being a true nut!?

Lowest I've found are chilli nuts from aldi but as they are so much lower (carb wise) than any other peanut think the nutritional values are wrong. Sorry haven't got a pack to check at the mo.

5.5 am, pre 5.0 post 6.6 happy with this as there is a lot of stress about the house.
