Crazy.

.
.
With blood sugar high, I did nothing.  I didn't eat and drank only plain tea.  Two hours later, blood sugar read 257 in a continued fasting state.  *sigh*  It doesn't make a lick of sense.  I have one improbable possibility, that I can see.  Perhaps the straw I use has built up with sucradrops (liquid sucralose, about the only sweetener that has little blood sugar issues, mostly)?

Breakfast, bacon and eggs, was eaten, then a larger dose of insulin was taken.  I will also have a fatted tea, sans sweetener.  Then test two hours after.  I just don't think near fasting should do this.  Near fasting you ask?  Cutting calories to around the 1,500~1,700 mark, where a 20% reduction in calories, for weight loss, would be about 2,400 calories.  If I did the maths right, that would mean a 50~57% calorie drop.

If caloric reduction is enough, muscle can be cannibalized, which might produce insulin spikes, if I doubt they would reach anywhere near this level even with extended starvation.  No insulin at bedtime.  I just don't know.  I will use a new straw and new glasses/cups, see if that helps.  Barring that?  It may just be that flukes happen.  Later.
