I'm Paying For It Now

I had a pretty good day but at 6 when I usually have dinner... I just wasn't hungry so I skipped it. It wasn't until 7:30 that my blood sugar crashed and I mean crashed. I quickly ate something but it's taking its time returning to normal. I don't know why I let it go so long. I know how I'm going to feel... and I just thought, well this time might be different. It's been 30 minutes and I'm still feeling really light headed. I hope that it kicks in soon... but I guess this is my body's way of punishing me.

You should never break habits, if you usually have dinner at 6 do not go over that time. We dine around 7:30 / 8:00 PM here in Europe.

You have to really be careful with sugar levels. You have to consume something. Even if it's a banana.

I'm hoping that someone reading this will not do what I did!

You should have at least had something to snack on instead of waiting so long to eat. Not good for your health lady.

I made tacos for dinner. I hadn't had them in quite awhile, so they tasted good. I was looking in my fridge door for salsa, then I remembered I had bought a huge jar from Costco that was on the top shelf.

Well next time you will know not to skip dinner or eat something in between. I hope it kicks back up soon so you can feel normal again. I hate when I don't feel good, it's hard to get anything done. Feel better soon

I tend to skip breakfast. When I wake up, I'm just not hungry. I'm usually up at 6-6:30, but I only start getting hungry at 10-11. I know it's bad to skip breakfast, but I'm not usually hungry for breakfast.
