I wore a Libre glucose monitor for 2 weeks on keto diet Averaged 4,2 to 5,2.( 75 to 90)to Hardly went up after keto meals. Had a huge carb meal as an experiment maxed at 5,6 (100). Then one morning after eating nothing I had an acute stress situation (lasted a few minutes nearly lost someone under an aesthetic while operating) Glucose shot up to 6,5 (120) and stayed there for 2 to3 hours. Was an eye opener for me what stress can do.

[@spookybooscarystorytime]

I have two businesses. One is stressful and the other is fun. I've also been keto for 3 years. I stall a lot. I have noticed that when I take less time from my stressful business that I do seem to lose more weight. The problem is, I need that business still until the other grows. it's all so frustrating and I don't know how to fix it without leaving the first biz.

[@mojoredbeakgr8mojo]

interesting i’m always stressed. I just got a cgm so i’m curious to see.

[@frankiefernandez5252]

Went to my doctor and he was freaking out over my high cholesterol ( 300+) and informed me I am a high risk for having a stroke or heart attack anytime and wanted to put me on cholesterol meds. I asked him what was the HDL and LDL levels, but he said "it doesn't matter, it's combined over 300." In the past few years I've dropped 70 pounds on a KETO OMAD 75/25 meat/veg lifestyle. My Blood pressure at the doctors was literally 120/70, Hemoglobin A1C was 5.4 and my Triglycerides were 45. I left the office more worried, stressed and anxious than when I arrived.

[@judithyoast31]

Don’t take a statin, and look for another doctor.

[@JYAN2852]

I second what Judith said. If you ask your doctor what cholesterol is he/she won't know

[@beau5296]

Your doctor is a fool.

[@cjcj6945]

Look at your numbers, why would you let him stress you? Relax and keep up the great work friend!👍

Just had a meeting with my GP yesterday and brought the list of tests from your video…she had never heard of half of them….but she ordered them. THANK YOU!!!!

[@petercyr3508]

Yikes, the only time my BG gets down in the 80s in the morning is 2 or 3 days into an extended fast. My liver makes glucose like a trained seal.

[@anthonyshaw8698]

[@forsbergmicah]

That’s helpful. I’m on a CGM and I’m watching it. Soon I’ll have my labs and I’ll see my fasting insulin

[@kellyrice2182]

I want to ask my healthcare provider to do these tests and then make an appointment with you to interpret! Just because they order them doesn't guarantee they know what they mean.

[@janekelley2001]

He is right on. I was diagnosed at 50. And they never checked my cpeptid numbers. Just assumed I was type 2 and put me on metformin.

My fasting glucose is often 120 or so around 4.5 hours after waking. I haven’t eaten carbs in over a month. Just protein and fat.

[@Francisco-Danconia]

This is a good explanation as to why it might still be high kzbin.info/aero/PLeCKQp_XksB1qBtkBPir-LMsROcGxYjbw

[@annav7538]

You’re probably still insulin resistant and, in am, liver releases glucagon due to cortisol going up which raises BS. It took me over 2 years to get the morning fasting blood sugar below 95. Stay with it. It will get better. Do you do any fasting? That helps and the other thing that helps is a 15-20 minute brisk walk in the am. It’s important to get that number below 95 and mine always goes below 85-90 after I walk.

[@bobschaefer99]

Confused why you done need the Kraft tables 3 hour post prandial. I was slightly high on insulin at hour 2 before keto. I plan to test again soon

Can valid tests be possible while I am completing yet another round of prednisone to treat chronic gout? Docs have thrown in Allopurinol simultaneously to reduce uric acid. My daily glucose tests are all over the map! Mostly just above 100, yesterday 255. I am on Keto diet, have been all year. Cant get out off this vicious cycle.

[@Francisco-Danconia]

My mom was on keto for 4 years and while her blood sugar got better and she got off her meds, it was still high even with a 20g daily allowance of carbs. It's only went lower since she went totally to zero carb. Hope that helps.

[@numoon56]

Prednisone causes hyperglycemia, it's a known side effect, go completely carnivore for a while, get off the meds and inflammation will diminish.

I like the freestyle libre, the basic one. It works for 14 days and is easy to take off and reapply a new one. The others I know of are 10 day ones.

[@adorableadornments1101]

I was wondering if, in line with testing, what the difference is between interstitial blood glucose readings and actual blood glucose readings with a finger prick?

[@markiangooley]

In my experience (several years using Freestyle Libre, type 1 diabetic since 1970) the values are broadly similar. Interstitial lags finger stick by a few minutes to an hour. Often in my case the Libre value is 20 mg/dl lower than a finger stick even when they’re both level over an hour or two - but not always. Just my own experience. I can’t say in general.

[@Malcolm-Achtman]

@@markiangooley I've never used a continuous glucose monitor (CGM) but if I did I would be more interested in seeing how steady or how variable my values are throughout the day (and even through the night). Trying to correlate it to fingerstick measurements is tricky and frustrating, from what I understand.

It can definitely keep you from correcting any problems. My mom was keto 4 years with a 20g allowance. Stopped improving until recently reducing to zero. Aug 23rd update: she's now down 22 lbs

Watched Dr Cywes in his presentation from a few days ago at the LCHF SAN Diego conference . Interesting stuff -- But , for a doctor prominent in the obesity space he has one glaring fault or at least one area that must be somewhat embarrassing for him . He has a pretty big GUT .. visceral fat to spare by the look . Perhaps explains the camera angles here . Sorry Robert - you need help .

[@fruitlessbeast]

Kind of a dick comment there Bruce. Did it occur to you he’s actually still losing weight? Probably the least helpful or useful comment I’ve seen on this channel.
