Blood glucose continuing to rise. Added berberine last week with low success.

Diet really clean, 2000 calories while dieting. Almost 0 cheat meals/refeeds in 5 weeks. Cardio 5-6 days a week and lifting 4 days a week

Idk what’s going on. I’m taking my entire HGH dose at night, one hour after eating.

It used to be like 90 before starting this diet. I measured 104, then 115 another day.

So yesterday about 20 minutes after drinking a protein shake it checked 83 wtf

I read where Reta causes some peoples bg to spike

You need to check it 2 hours after after a big meal, not 20 minutes. And if you're on Reta then you may also want to check it again at 3 and 4 hours due to delayed gastric emptying.
