If you have been low carbing then when first introducing carbs back into diet it takes three days to get used to them again. During these transition days you would get higher spikes.Was just experimenting - I rarely eat that many carbs in a full day normally. Ive never seen 11.0 on my meter before. I had a little mini panic! I was delighted to see the 6.6 reading. That may mean my body responded with a good amount of insulin....
7.7 this morning.
Woke up feeling much better than yesterday.... That horrible cough medicine is definitely helping me sleep through the night lol
Always think of food when I see your username drool, drool6.7 today
Great fasting figuresAnother 4.1..... Although that revelation by someone on the Libre Freestyle thread of rice spiking at 5 hours still rings in my ears. Hey ho. There's only so much we can do.
Have a good day everyone.
I bet that rice is going to get there. Around.... Now !Another 4.1 for me this morning. Last night was our usual Saturday Indian, which is our only packaged meal of the week. We tend to buy one of the big supermarket's ready packed versions, with rice, naan and onion bhaji in the bag, even though we never finish it. Yesterday they only had the variant, with additional Bombay potatoes, and mini samosa, so we saved a couple of bits as contributions to a snack lunch during the week.
Before I was 3.7, and after 4.3, so I have to be happy with that. Although that revelation by someone on the Libre Freestyle thread of rice spiking at 5 hours still rings in my ears. Hey ho. There's only so much we can do.
Have a good day everyone.

I'm one of those people who can't tolerate (or who'd prefer not to) anything other than a hot breakfast. Cereals are out for obvious reasons, not that I ever ate them.
I go to bed with good figures as my pre and post dinner numbers are really good. Haven't gone above 8 yet (testing over 2 months) and most of the time in the 6 range.
When I test around midnite, it's usually in the 5s. It's the damned jump in the morning. I REALLY want to stay within a range (be it Breakfast / Lunch / Dinner) of under 8.0 no matter what and no matter the time i test.
It's got to the point that I'll compromise what I eat regardless of the time of day to keep in line. Doesn't bother me as long as the numbers are controlled. I'm determined and single minded about it and with our heat today (35C) I might just have a loaded salad tomorrow.
Cheers mate
