I am sorry I have posted again about my levels. but I am quite excited about them being lower than normal.
As I mentioned last night before bed I was 5.0 which is the first time I have had this low number. Today my numbers have been 6.4 from getting up, so expected this a little higher, then 5.7, 5.9, 5.8, 5.8, just gotta wait until tonights number. so mostly under 6.0 all day.
I log everything I eat on my iphone with the app My Dairy Net Pro, which gives me all the nutrional values, and I see a pattern. My levels started going down on Sunday and the app reflects this in the following way:
Saturday I had way to many calories 3346, fats were 198g, carbs, 39g, net carbs 34g and sugars 5g. The carbs and sugars are about within my usual limit carbs at the max.
Sunday, calories were 2804, fat 130g, carbs 15g, net carbs 13g, sugars 16g I had much less carbs, but more actual sugars than normal.
Monday, calories were 1530, fat 115g, carbs 15g, net carbs 11g, sugars 10g again much less carbs, but a little more actual sugars than normal.
Tuesday (today) calories are 2096, fat 170g, carbs, 21g, net carbs 16g, sugars 9, once again less carbs, but a little more actual sugars than normal.
I have been usualy having about 25g-35g carbs and between 3g-6g sugars. Looking at what I have eaten, it appears that lowering my carbs and having a little more sugars have had a good effect on my blood glucose and the calories vary so not making to much impact with calories. my fat is higher than recommended by the app (which I put all my details in too).
a little less carbs and more real sugar (just a wee bit) and this is working for me at the moment, I dont feel hungry at all, and sometimes whilst having lunch I feel full and dont finish it.
I am also still on just 1 x 500Mg Metformin in the morning, I take 1 cinnamon pill and 1 mutlivitamin pill each day.
Also not listed I have 1 or 2 black americano coffees with Stevia most days with 1 or 2 small chunks of 85% Green n Blacks Dark Choc.
Yay me!
