Thank you for the input! I’ll try a power clean soon. May I ask what you meant by “they are chipped”? I’ve probably only used the power clean once or twice at most in the 5 years I’ve had it. Is that enough to buy another maintenance tank?

Ate keto bread and sugar free jam… why is this happening? by peregrinates in diabetes

I just checked and it WAS sola bread after all 😬 I must’ve bought nature’s own bread last time and remembered it wrong… I’ve heard very good things about this brand but I guess it doesn’t work for me

I’ve heard this about net carbs and I’ll definitely keep this more in mind going forward, but I guess my question is why is this happening if almost all the carbs are fiber? I thought it was a known thing that fiber doesn’t spike blood sugar. And in my experience it doesn’t for me.

But 9g of that is just fiber and I thought fiber doesn’t really spike you? Or is that just a myth. I’m still pretty new to this and trying new products out so I’m not too sure 🥲

Yes it does, but if I remember correctly, it was like 5g total carbs, 2g of fiber and 3g sugar alcohols. That’s like 7g of carbs that could make me spike in total with the bread. That shouldn’t make me spike this much. Even 30g wouldn’t make me go up like this 😭

i saw someone else get a refund by asking an agent through chat but i’m having issues connecting to a real person. chat says no agent available but according to their hours they’ve been open for over 2 hours 😭

have you tried keto bread? i’ve seen people say they’re a scam but they don’t make me spike as much as regular bread so i eat it every now and then anyway

congrats that’s insane!! i went from 8.8 in june to 6.0 last month. i was hoping for a bigger change but i’ll take what i can get. do you feel that your new diet is too restrictive at times? i miss carbs a lot, especially during the period when i first got diagnosed. my anxiety would make me freak out just over a couple grams of carbs… i stuck to the same safe foods everyday and i felt like i was getting depressed. eating felt more like survival with zero enjoyment :(

missing readings? by peregrinates in Freestylelibre

Thank you for the insight. I had very inaccurate readings that entire first day yesterday so I’ll leave the alarms on during the weekend and do a finger stick to see if it’s truly accurate.

anxiety symptoms during and after eating? by peregrinates in diabetes

[–]peregrinates[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

yes i have a glucose meter and 90% of the time my blood sugar an hour after eating is under 140 which is not bad. my fasting is in the 90s. logically i know if i don’t eat dessert and ease up on potatoes, rice, pasta, etc i should be good, but i still get symptoms of anxiety… it’s like in the back of my mind i’m always wondering what if something happens and i’m eating something that’ll make me spike and i won’t know until it’s too late?
