Tuesday Night Notes & Turtle Design

Hey everyone, how are you all doing? It's after 11 PM here on this cold Tuesday in February. I am tired so will be going to get some sleep pretty soon. I don't have a whole lot to share, so we'll just get to the food. Maybe I will do a weigh in on Friday, we'll see. Meal 1 - 5 slices of deli turkey and 2 cheese sticks Meal 2 - 1 cheesy yakisoba bowl (like ramen) Meal 3 (or snack) - BBQ flavor jerky stick. I know it doesn't sound like a lot, other than meal #2, but I just wasn't very hungry. Yes, the noodle bowl was high in carbs...but I think I did worse having less protein than yesterday. My blood sugars were pretty low all day according to my CGM - until later in the evening. I think the noodles just took a while to raise my sugar. Macros for the day - 1,045 calories, 58 fat, 49 protein, and 82 carbs What do you think of the day? I know I need a lot more protein. Anyways - wanted to share the next animal in my A to Z challenge. Last time I did a sloth for S. For the letter T I chose to make a turtle design. So, here he is. I would love to know what you think as always!

I have not checked your animal designs after Numbat. I have to see them. This turtle looks happy . I hope that your sugar levels come back to track. I have not checked mine in a week's time.

Well they are not going anywhere. They can all be found under the A to Z tag lol My sugar is okay today...which I am surprised by with what I ate. You haven't? Is that bad?

@MommyOfEli2013 I was feeling okay and didn't check the sugar in a week time. I don't check it regularly like you would do. I take a few readings in a week at random times to just see that all is okay. Today I took one after breakfast and it was 132. So, I guess that I am doing good. Good to know that your sugar levels are good. I will try to check all of those when I get time.

@arunima25 Well if you don't need to check it all the time then that is good and 132 is not too bad My CGM is messed up though I think. I checked it this morning it said I was in the 60s I think, by the finger I was 175! So who knows how many times its been wrong.
