I am hypoglycemic too, but I have no idea what "good" number are. Since starting Atkins, I have found that if I pay attention and listen to my body...I can tell if my blood sugar is right.
If after eating a specific food I get any of the following symptoms, I assume it caused my blood sugar to jump too high.
nausea
hunger 30 minutes after eating a regular meal (I call this pseudo-hunger)
cravings
excessive thirst
confusion, brain fog, nervousness, or difficulty making decisions
irritability
fatigue or malaise
How long has it been since you have lost a pound? I have gone 3 1/2 weeks and then then the Woosh Fairy visited me. And I jumped up and down a 4-pound range during that time. An official stall is either 4 or 6 weeks, I can't remember which.
Good Luck!!!
