[QUOTE="vit90, post: 784764, member: 141633"] After several mid-6s this morning was 5.0 - rather shocked but obviously pleased; that's the best I can recall getting out of the meter since I have had it. On the other hand I am starting day 3 of my [URL='http://www.diabetes.co.uk/forum/blog-entry/back-on-the-newcastle-style-diet.114/']return to a Newcastle style 800 calorie a day diet[/URL] for a couple of weeks. Because I have been suspicious about the accuracy of my CodeFree meter I tested my non-diabetic wife this morning. She is on a LCHF diet in order to lose weight but not tightly controlling calories like me. She was 5.3 :) - and she's not pleased and has demanded a re-test two hours after breakfast. She had about 500 calories of full English breakfast while I had 200 calories of milled linseed and a smidgen of oats. She was half way through her first morning cuppa (unsweetened tea with milk) but I don't think any lactose from the milk would have got through her system by the time I tested her. I expect the table will be turned for the follow-up test... [/QUOTE]
