[QUOTE="viviennem, post: 348192, member: 31282"] Burning fat from low-carbing - called "ketosis" - doesn't cause your blood glucose to rise. It may be that you aren't eating enough, at 800 calories per day, and that your liver is dumping glucose in an attempt to keep you fuelled. I believe this can happen during/after exercise. Are you deliberately trying a programme (eg the Newcastle Diet) for a limited period that requires a low calorie intake? A list of what you are eating on a daily basis may help us have some more ideas. I know nothing about Pepsi Max (ugh! - sorry, personal taste! :D ) but check what they are using as a sweetener. I believe some (eg maltilol?) can raise BGs. Why not try a day on tap water and see what happens? Viv 8) [/QUOTE]
