I had the same experience with oatmeal!I am another one who cannot eat oatmeal with any degree of comfort. It gives me far too high a rise. Before I was diagnosed I used to love it and have it most mornings for breakfast and still miss it. If you can eat porridge with just a .5 rise I really envy you!
Like many on here I have completely cut out any form of cereals for my breakfast. I was advised by my diabetic nurse to bulk up on cereal particularly oats and/or Weetabix as apparently slow release and eliminates desire to snack. Well I don't really snack much anyway except say late at night.6.8 at 6:09, rising to 7 at 7:58.
I'm doing an oatmeal experiment this morning. I want to see how it affects me. I'm reading more and more about how good oatmeal is for blood sugars. Does that take effect after a two hour check? Throughout the day?
Edited to add, rose to 7.5, which was .5 . Maybe the short walk I had helped too.
6.6 off for a walk .
Me neither @Omar51. I never tire of eggs, cooked in various ways, and avocado; a match made in heaven.For me I wouldn’t touch oats and cereals with a ten foot pole!
Thank youMorning all. Happy Anniversary @DEBBIESCOTT. Enjoy your day. 7.2 for me today. The heat is really getting to me and causing internal problems so am not setting foot outdoors today. I love the sun but the sun doesn't love me. Hope everyone else is ok.
