So I felt dizzy a lot few days ago while I am on a fast. I decided to take bloody sugar levels got 115 which is pretty high I never got this high before.about month or so ago I got 93 fasting blood sugar. Even before that it’s alway in 90 to 98 May be once a while I saw 101 or 105.
After a day I decided to check my fasting blood sugar it’s 123. After couple of hours I decided to break my fast early ate a lunch 2 hours after meal I got 128 and 3 hours after it’s 98.
My after meal blood sugar levels are always normal. I got a above fasting sugar levels 110 straight 3 days. Today I checked it again it’s 105.
Is this dawn phenomenon? Is this because of IF or do I have diabetes.I do eat carb heavy food decided to cut down on carbs yesterday I ate a low carb meal.
I decided to continue a week with low carb and IF and see my blood sugar levels if they are high then I will go to doctor.
Hmm, are you fat adapted or is this your first foray into relying on fat for fuel? That could be part of it, maybe you need to ease into the fasting a little more.
Also our bodies can release sugar into the bloodstream when under stress- fasting is a stressor- again maybe you just need to ease in.
When I started IF I just pushed my breakfast back by like 15 minutes per day. I also used bulletproof coffee to help with the transition. Took a few months to get fully fat adapted.
