Oh dear.
Day 4 of lower protein (I avoid weighing and measuring, where possible, so I can't give precise quantities)
But it would appear that I had definitely been boosting BG levels with higher protein.
The last few days have been interesting.
My fasting (pre lunch and dinner) levels have dropped from c. 5.6-5.7 to c. 5.1-5.2.
Even my dawn phenomenon is down a little.
I'm teetering much closer to Liver Dump territory, too. Which is making me crotchety and wobbly.
I'm also hungrier, though I am eating the same volumes.
Considering that my average BG has dropped by less than 1.0mmol/l across the whole day. I consider this grossly unfair, a divine joke, and I want to register a complaint with whoever is responsible.
So I'm going to keep on with the lower protein. Sigh.
And stick strictly to LC (cos otherwise the hunger and lower BG will trigger carb feeding frenzies - been there. Done that. Not going back.)
So the remaining option is to eat more fat. And I really did think I was eating enough of it... Oh well...
Will report how it goes.
