I got a ketomojo about three weeks ago so that I could explore how different foods and carb levels affect my BG. I test my BG in the mornings (in addition to the fun meal experiments), spot check for blood ketones, and also test for BAC with a cheapie breathalyzer.
I had fasting/am BG levels in the low 70s and then they suddenly climbed to the high 80s and low 90s when I got a cold. (The plot is my am BG.) This kicked me out of ketosis but I went back in when the cold subsided, yet my BG continues to be high. So now my BG levels are high (for me) but I’m in ketosis. My Hbaic in the fall was 5.0 and I am not prediabetic and have a BMI of 23. I’m in maintanence mode, doing OMAD about 3-4x/wk. I’m having trouble learning what is expected of BG numbers for people that aren’t diabetic or what could explain the rise in my BG levels. I don’t think this is dawn phenomenon, given that I don’t have metabolic syndrome and am not losing weight as far as I can tell.
I am also curious to learn what others get for my BG curves before and after meals if they are OMAD. When I started taking readings, I’d often start with a low BG in the high 60s, then I’d get a rise into the 90s on a keto meal and then back down to the 70s.
(Apologies if this is a repeat kind of series of questions…I searched but didn’t find the answers for people that aren’t diabetic.)
