Keep your chin up. It's early days
Keep your chin up. It's early daysHi new day new challenge. Fasting blood 13 too high. Had Greek yoghurt and berries for breakfast - went up after to 14.3 then had some almonds and went down to 13.5 . Just had lunch of salad, tomatoes, cucumber and sliced ham and avocado with a little chilli dressing, and just waiting till 2.00pm to test it again, feeling really disheartened, am really trying and whatever I'm doing doesn't seem to be working. Haven't had tabs yet today, it was suggested changing from taking them in the morning to taking after eating evening meal, which I am starting tonight, so hopefully that might make a difference to the fasting morning reading. Hey oh got to keep smiling eh?
As long as he really, really believe it.
Could you do a little training over t'internet please? Just to validate your methodology, obviously.
Are you outback of beyond!!No idea, waiting for some batteries for my meter.
Sky high if it was me... crumbs...And your blood sugars are?
Not a dairy free Monday. Will be lucky if I get through the day without punching someone lol, so dairy free is a challenge too far
B: plain omelette
L: veg soup, Meyer lemon
D: two Quorn sausages, lots of mushrooms fried in garlic butter. Got a chia pud for later.
Snack: creamy decaf

Tell me about it!
Having walked away from sugar, honey, most sweeteners, milk choc, all grains, almost all root veg, whey (in milk), most processed, veg oils, soy in any form and most fruit, I'm hanging on to what's left! No way am I giving up butter and cream!
Are you planning on low-carbing? If so, you need full-fat everything...
Oh....didn't know that! Why's that? The full fat yoghurt showed double the carbs......
Now I'm really confused....
Plus I want to take good care with my cholesterol too
Are you outback of beyond!!
If we're talking plain yoghurt, full fat is usually lower carb than low fat/semi-skimmed versions, because when the fat is removed, the volume goes down, so proportionally there are more carbs per 100ml/gr.
It is now becoming understood that carbs, not fats impact on cholesterol. The presentation below is immensely informative. It's 27 minutes well spent, in my view.
