Thought I would try another of my pointless experiments. I was bored.

I decided to test myself two hours after I finished my meal rather than the usual two hours after first mouthful. I did this a few times and the result was always a marginally higher result (,eg 6.1 instead of 5.9). I presume that was because I gave my body a bit longer to process the food. Is that correct?

Those readings are essentially the same, within the accuracy of the monitor.
