[fast5] Re: Cindy

Andy,

Thanks for your suggestion of eating an egg and almonds before bed. I think I will try that and see if I have better numbers in the morning. However the other problem I am having is (even if my numbers are good when I get up), they continue to rise because I'm not eating anything all day. They stay pretty high until around 2:00 p.m. when they will start to go down. So it looks like I may have to do a modified Fast-5 where I eat something with substance in the morning and then fast the rest of the day until dinner.

Cindy
