Well my intermittent fasting that started with an unintentional 24 hr fast on 23 September , that then became intentional 24 hr fasts (with a few 18 hr ones thrown in) continues.
Bed was 4.8 last night followed by FBG 5.6. The worst DP could throw at me with No breakfast continuing was 6.9 and 3 hrs later I was back at 4.6.
On the 24 hr days I've had a look and I'm eating around 1000 calories (or less on the MFP thinks I'm anorexic days) and carbs are mostly 20g or less. What I have noticed is I'm not hungry. I hit this point late afternoon where I need to drink something but otherwise I feel fine. I've also noticed that effort (be it exercise or heavy housework) raises the BG in the absence of food but only to around 5.6/5.8. Used to be a lot worse.
BGs seem pretty stable (touch wood) and the figs I quote on here are from my meter. Yes I use a Libre but it tends to measure under so I still do checks (especially with Libre flashing red low glucose warnings at me when it isn't). So , for now I'm going to stick with this
B. Nothing just water
L. Marigold Swiss bouillon and water
D. More leftovers - a fishy salad tonight, prawns , fresh anchovies, squid, lettuce, tomato, 1/2 avocado, bit cornish cove , boiled egg and Helmanns.
Couldn't eat all of last night's salad and still felt full at bedtime.
