[QUOTE="jjraak, post: 2316218, member: 493719"] Hi Bill. I see the body as a highly complex machine, With checks and balances to stop YOU killing it accidentally. When we stop giving the body what it's used to, it isn't aware we are doing it with good intentions, so begins making up the shortfall of what IT believes OUR body needs. After a few or weeks I found the same for me, good efforts not reflected in the number But with the same consistent approach, it seemed to learn I was SAFE, And then began dialing down the extra help. My advise for the early stages of LCHF ( 6 months) would be still check daily, but don't me too perturbed by a higher number then wished for based in foods eaten, Look to the drop over a week or two for the progress. I do however think the pre / post food bgs tell us much more about how well we are managing this new way of eating, and give valuable insight into how to tailor our new diet to have the best effect pleasure v better choices. As said previously, if your not enjoying the food you are choosing to eat, higher likely hood you won't stay the course. Just my tuppence worth, no more knowledgeable then many others on here. But never hurts to have another viewpoint to help make rational decisions. I would, if you haven't got it already, recommend Jason fungs, the diabetes code [URL]https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B0795BLS8D/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_LIAFFbZNQJ23K[/URL] For a bodger mechanic like me, I saw this like a Haynes manual for T2D. All models, all years...;) Is it the Bible..no. But it does give a very good overview of what IS happening to us as we tackle this disease. Good luck on the journey. You'll find your way, for sure.
