Still better than mine! And i'm jealous you have a libre!! x

It was Lidl granola, 40g, with 3Tbs mixed Omega seeds, and plain Greek yogurt! Most people could cope with that. Problem is, it clashed with my dawn rise, I'd normally wait at least 40 mins after bolusing before eating, but the plumber was coming, so I ate straight way! (The amount of Bolus was obv OK, because I was back at 5.2 by lunchtime)
 
Only part time, when I can afford it!
Ahhh - I hate how they're soo expensive!! My insulin pump came with a cgm...but I have run out of sensors now...and don't have £300 to buy some more lol x

I thought it was interesting, because without the Libre, if I'd tested at the 2hr mark, when I was back to around 8, I'd have thought, OK fine, within range, and carried on eating it.

I know what you mean. The graph can tell a whole different story lol.

Ahh granola and yoghurt my everyday breakfast with problems the opposite way haha x
 
Blueberries and greek yoghurt... Is great for the levels! X
My problem is if I don't eat literally as soon as I've jabbed for it I can hypo even from a 6 we're not convinced my breakfast ratio is right yet :( x
 
Well this morning I woke at 8:00 on 8.3
Then 10:34 I was 12.9
12:36 I was 11.4
14:16 I was 9
16:02 I was 8.2
21:00 I was 8.7

And I'll do a test before bed too.. Not the best day for me but a real day!

Really happy with these. Sometimes I go really high.

I must say it's helpful to see others results.

Defo sounds like your ratio is wrong... However blueberries and greek yoghurt is very low carb xx

At the moment my ratios are breakfast 1:12, lunch 1:14 and dinner/tea 1:12 so I take 2.5 units for a 29g carb breakfast so we are looking at the possibility of a 1:14 for breakfast too, crazy to think when I came out of hospital they had me on set units of 4 and then 6 for a month until I started carb counting and I never had a hypo then (although we think I did during the night on a couple of occasions) then the problems started when I was on a standard 1:10 ratio lol xx

I think sometimes it's good to remember that we're all human and we don't sit between 4.5 and 7 all day every day!
