Just a quickie from me this week… I thought I’d share an interesting info-grab with you. The flash glucose monitoring system collects all sorts of info which is easy to see at a glance, such as your daily graph.
The graph shows you how often you have been in or out your target blood sugar range. The Monday one here (right) is me on holiday. Happy days, eh? Let’s loosen the reins on low-carb eating as boy, do the Cretans know how to do miraculous things with potatoes. While over there, I tasted what must count as the BEST CHIPS IN THE WORLD. A bold claim, I know.
And Wednesday is me back from holiday, determined to jump back on the low-carb wagon*. Goodness me, those graphs tell their own story, hmm? From wild jumps—the roller-coaster ride, to a far more sedate and steady line. A week’s potato bingeing is fun, but long-term I prefer to stick with the graph that doesn’t soar and plummet all over the place.
*Sorry for all the mixed metaphors.

I think it’s great to be able to monitor your blood sugar like that.

Yes, sometimes I wonder if it would be easier to eat exactly the same thing in the same amounts day in, day out.

Diabetes type 2 is completely controlled by eating a Ketosis diet – check on the internet or see ‘The art and science of low carbohydrate living ‘ – JS Volek SD Phinney – their book. For type 1 check on the internet- Just google Ketosis and Type 1 diabetes and you will see some interesting information. It will help.
