My Fitness Pal was telling me off again for not eating enough.
 
Weird today; my FBG was 5.4 (good FBG for me) but two hours later it is up to 7.8 ?!?!?

Mr C's birthday today, so:

Breakfast: Nothing
Lunch: Nothing
Dinner: (probably) Toby Carvery - will have the roast turkey - no spuds, no carrots but lots of the other veg and wine
 
So far 18g of cornflakes and three strawberries sliced over them with a little semi skimmed milk.

At around 1'ish I shall have a Tesco's seeded flatbread with a slice of cheddar and a little ham and probably an apple and then for dinner I think we have curry tonight and I usually have a small orange for afters :)

5.4 - stress has gone after yesterday ? I find if I don't eat something in the morning my BG rises. Doctor says it's just a liver dump and it always falls when I eat. Lunch I can skip but not breakfast.
 
Tuesday
B. 2 Herta chicken frankfurter, fried egg, 4 cherry tomatoes, portobello mushroom, 2 crispy bacon and a less sugar latte.
L. Black Tea (busy with Christmas shopping again - thank goodness for Click & Collect!)
D. Lidl High Protein Roll with 2 slice of M&S smokehouse chicken, iceberg lettuce, bit tomato, 1/4 avocado, and a little Helmanns- Heaven! Cup of Mushroom soup.
My Fitness Pal is moaning at me again.

Yes, I also get Dawn Phenomenon aka Liver Dump - but it usually gives me a higher FBG - it doesn't usually kick in a couple of hours after.

I'm usually fine missing both breakfast and lunch and can last out until dinner as long as I have plenty of water / black decaff coffee . :) If I have breakfast then I'm starving by lunchtime and feel peckish almost all day. I have absolutely no idea why.

My friend (who's suddenly turned in to an expert on fasting) says I should try a longer fast once a week to bring my BS down but like @Brunneria I know I couldn't get any sleep for worrying about hypos if I skipped dinner.

Oh it was.....Marks smokehouse roast chicken is really tasty (and peppery) and that was my first Lidl roll after reading about them on here. After no bread in 3 weeks it was great!!
