[sweetstar]

Highest reading all day had been 120, before dinner. 2 hrs after dinner it was 201.
Made no sense. However, after considering what I ate I figured it out.
3 egg cheese omelet and 2 pieces of whole wheat,whole grain toast, carbs 22.
What is weird is that if I eat the bread at lunch it hadn't been spiking my BG like that.
However, now I know. No bread for me ever.
Everyone have a good evening.
