[QUOTE="Chronicle_Cat, post: 1886638, member: 486327"] It sounds to me like your diet has been just fine (except for the brown wholemeal with seeds. Yes, it's a bit better than white bread but the extra fibre isn't usually enough to prevent its effect on raising blood glucose. Except for that, it sounds to be like you are eating low carb. You could test whether or not wholemeal spikes your blood glucose by eating the same meal with and without the wholemeal and testing before and 2 hours after and comparing the 2 post meal readings. Most of us find it does spike our levels although some people's bodies can manage it. It does take a while for blood glucose levels to drop (it's never as fast as we'd like) but they are heading in the right direction. [/QUOTE]
