[QUOTE="DJC3, post: 2202757, member: 468536"] I don’t believe it’s foolproof or easy, and I know that in a few weeks the pendulum will swing the other way for me - it always does, but I’m happy to take the good times now and fret about the bad times later. At the mo I think it’s definitely the DD meal plans helping. I understand your analogy between the Libre and Fitbit. Neither will effect a change per se but both can give you information which might make you consider different choices. I wasn’t following DD meal plans when I wore the Libre though and I’m not entirely sure it flagged up anything I wasn’t aware of. I’ve seen some people post quite significant rises when they’ve had stressful phone calls and others like [USER=460354]@Debandez[/USER] who had high readings throughout her illness in spite of hardly eating anything. It just goes to show that what we eat, whether lchf, keto, whatever, isn’t the whole picture. I guess we all know that already so maybe you’ll think the Libre is a waste of money as it won’t change anything. I found it interesting once I’d accepted the fact that it will always be 1-2 mmol lower than the finger prick. [/QUOTE]
