Morning @Welshman1952. A darn good FBG reading all things considered.Morning playmates! Excuse my absence but as a result of another condition I have, I regularly get UTIs. Well, just for the purpose this one was pretty vile so I took to my bed and slept for 2 days, only eating a natural yoghurt on the 2nd day.
Today my fbg is 6.3, suggesting the antibiotics are kicking in.
Its a big week for me this week - surgery to have a benign lumpy thing cut off the side of my nose and the car needs an. MOT. So glad I'm feeling better as neither of those 2 events are arduous, but the become problematic when you feel like an old wet rag.
Bread is my nemesis too .Awoke this morning to test
BG 12.2 mmol.
A bit disappointed as all I ate last night at around 7pm was a tinned tuna sandwich, with 2 rounds of bread.
It has to be the bread that's given me a higher reading and I should know better by now, not to eat the damned stuff.
Have a lovely weekend x
Bread is my nemesis too .
Good evening @Omar51I eat half a slice of sourdough bread for breakfast, lunch and dinner. Make a total one and a half slice for the entire day. That is one of the reasons my FBG is in the non diabetic range.
Your willpower constantly AMAZES me.I eat half a slice of sourdough bread for breakfast, lunch and dinner. Make a total one and a half slice for the entire day. That is one of the reasons my FBG is in the non diabetic range.
Evening @Ashybang. Best leave bread on the supermarket shelf, in that case!Your willpower constantly AMAZES me.
Once the loaf of bread is in front of me, my head YELLS at me to take 2 slices.
Well done Omar51.......
Good evening @Omar51
I know you monitor your blood glucose levels carefully and, if eating the equivalent of one and a half slices of sourdough in divided amounts three times a day works for you, long may that continue.
Unfortunately, type 2 diabetes ia a very individual disorder and, whether pre-diabetic or diabetic, we're all different. Some of us cannot handle this amount of carbohydrate daily, except perhaps by forgoing something else.
Our blood glucose level is one parameter that can be measured at home, but insulin sensitivity, insulin receptor signalling, gut microbiome and circadian rhythm responses are just some of the variables that play a role and of course all of these factors are differently weighted between individuals with type 2 diabetes.
Your willpower constantly AMAZES me.
