Dina...when you got that 132 what was your fasting before breakfast and how many grams of fiber were in the tortilla? It was also a fairly low fat breakfast, so the carbs you ate would hit your system faster.

Lisa:
my FBG was 110. this LC tortilla has a total of 11 g carbs and 8 grams fiber per whole thing, making 3 g of active carbs per serving, and i ate half of it. this will make about 1.5 g of carbs +about 1 g in egg beaters. very low carb breakfast, and still BG spiked very high. on the contrary, i can have FBG sometimes much higher, around TOM, like 135. then i'd have BF with 2-3 bran-a-crisp crackers, some PB and greek lc yougurt. and my 1h BG will be around 90-100. it's a mistery for me but too low carbs and high protein/fat food makes mt BG worse. it's hard to find a source of protein, which doesn't contain naturally fat. besides may be egg whites.
Thanks,
dina
