@rebrascora and you've done a fine job, don't feel disheartened, the rest of us can see your doing your best to help xx
 
@rosie1 your coming across as very rude, nobody suggest you go to a farm shop, @adrian1der was replying to @rebrascora about what he does, not once did anyone suggest you do the same

On your not of "but you didn't say what I should eat" is because nobody can tell you that, we are all INDIVIDUAL and tolerate different things, different amount of things etc so you have to find what you can tolerate as the individual you are by testing your BG before eating and then again 2 hours later looking for no more than a 2-3 mmol rise, if it's more then you may need to look at reducing the portion size of the carbs consumed or eliminate it from your menu

All the other members have done is offered good advice to you and you seem to have thrown it straight back in their faces, they don't deserve that

We're here to support each other and that's what we have tried to do xx
 
I found a great bread in Tesco Sourdough Rye https://www.tesco.com/groceries/en-GB/products/300547129. Its very low sugar. So I had 2 pieces with meridian blueberry jam and almond butter for breakfast

Lunch I had 2 ryvita with soft goats cheese and smoked salmon

Dinner stirfry prawns with pakchoi - made sauce with almond butter, soy sauce, sesame oil, garlic and chilli and small amount of rice noodles. Delicious

Went from 5.2 to 6.4
