Cofeffan- makes perfect sense to me! r numbers are always like that except that we dont get to watch the numbers go up and down..thats where the whole glycemic index comes in. Foods that are lower on the GI will raise your blood sugars at a slower rate and you wont see as much of a surge and then a drop as opposed to eating lets say candy which is very high in on GI; there you’ll see a big surge and then a quick drop when insulin kicks in…
Basically, sounds like the CGM is a great invention but can also make u crazy! 🙂
(I guess thats why with regular finger sticks ur not supposed to check urself until at least 2 hours after a meal)
