I quit fasting after 15.5 hours and being too close to 3.9 for my comfort without eating (at 4.3) I ate 13g of carbs (low fat Breton wheat crackers).
1:20PM = 4.3 (Activity: I had gone out for a walk before this test, ate 13g Carbs after test)
2:00PM = 4.7 (Activity: Sitting at desk working. Ate another 13g Carbs)
3:00PM = 6.1 (Activity: Again, still sitting at desk working.)
I'm still not going to eat much or take a bolus until dinner, which will probably be around 6:00PM. Actually, this test is kind of cool, it tests my will power over hunger, it faces some of my fears of not eating and going hypo (though I still have to try it when I'm really active, yikes!), and it brings me closer to understanding what the heck my body is doing to me now.

Just a thought. |
My big problem is I don't like cereal because it gets too soggy for me, but I found that Oatmeal Crisp stays "crisp" for long enough. I'm picky with cereal I guess.
