Hello everyone, it is the end of another day so I am back to share my progress for the day. Maybe tomorrow I can do a weight update.
Anyways....
My blood sugar when I woke up was 156, much higher than I would like. Not sure why it's not doing as good as the first week.
Meal #1 was an egg (over easy), 4 slices of bacon and 2 slices of turkey bacon (have to cook that kind for my husband and son).
- 116 blood sugar after
Meal # 2 - leftover liver (breaded with parmesan cheese and ground up pork rinds. Served with some reduced sugar ketchup.
- 93 blood sugar after
Meal # 3 - A meat stick (Jack Link's brand, 1 carb for the whole thing), a cheese stick, and about 2 servings of BBQ flavored pork rinds. I also had some of the low carb/sugar free tiger fudge that I had made for Christmas.
- 91 blood sugar after
So my blood sugar was pretty good for most of the day and that is always a win!
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Macros:
1,356 calories
94 grams of protein
97 grams of fat
11 carbs - 2 fiber
(9 net carbs)
I finally got more calories, I felt bad when I had ate less than 1,000 but wasn't hungry enough to eat more.
How did you do today? Anything good on the menu?

@MommyOfEli2013 I'm sure I did. Diabetes runs in my family. I'm fortunate not to have it.

I am diabetic, been since 2010. Doing low carb helps, got my a1c down to 6.1.
Your breakfast sounds good, hope you enjoyed! Hope you have something good for lunch/supper

Thank you! And I think there is, but you'd have to eat quite a bit (like a 10 ounce steak at once maybe)

Yes, it's getting a lot better....but some days I still find the numbers higher. I'd like it 80-100 consistently.

@MommyOfEli2013 It hopefully just needs a little more time.

I had a grilled chicken sandwich with bacon and cheese, and just now had a fried fish sandwich with cheese.

Both of those sound good! I need to make some low carb bread so I can have a sandwich again.
