[QUOTE="Qwerty101, post: 2418706, member: 543471"] Hi so I did a little experimenting this week. My wife wanted an Indian takeaway for her birthday so i went for tandoori meat and very little sauce then a little onion rice (basmati has lower GI right?) and a whole meal chapati. My bloods on GCM spiked at around 8.2 but was back to 5,1 within 90 min. then an hour or so later another spike of 7-8 but back down to around 6 within 10 min. strange. it hovered between 5-6 all night and was 5.8 fasting when i woke up the next day. Is this pretty good? Another thing I have noticed in regards to not eating in the morning which was mentioned previously. Yesterday I has a small breakfast of some high fibre porridge ( a very quick spike of 8 then down as quick as it went up) But I was that busy at work I forgot to eat lunch!! so from around 3pm my levels seemed to fluctuate ALOT dropping to 3.2 at one point . then I ate and had a minimal spike from dinner but kept dropping lower through the evening and spiking back up once (unless it was the excitement for the football haha.) Is this a worry? It seemed to be fine overnight, although I spiked to 10ish from the porridge today. (down to 5 now I am writing this 2 hours after eating) I feel like I am more bothered its dropped my time in range from 98 to 97% hahaha. thanks for all replies. Its good to hear from people who know whats going on! [/QUOTE]
