2022 Health Journey - Day 24

Tweet

Evening everyone, how are you all doing? I am going to probably head to bed soon since I need to get up somewhat early to head out of town for my appointment with the endocrinologist. I wanted to share how I did today though with food and blood sugars. Fasting - 77 Meal 1 - 2 pizza wraps ~ street sized tortillas, pizza sauce, pepperoni and shredded cheese. & a sugar free jello on the side. Blood sugar - 108 Meal 2 - Bratwurst and about 2 oz ham A low carb/sugar free caramel cup on the side. Blood sugar after - 81 Meal 3 - 2 and a half pieces of cheesy chicken that I made (not sure the ounces...but I made a recipe so counted it all on myfitnesspal) Followed that with 1 serving of a salted caramel lily's bar (2 net carbs) Blood sugar 2 hours after - 57 Snack - 1.5 servings of the salted caramel lily's bar. Didn't want my sugar to drop in the night....so hoped the bar would keep it from dropping. Macros for everything - Calories - 1,374 Protein - 79 Fat - 99 Carbs - 51 Fiber - 35 Net carbs - 16 Sugars - 8 I try not to go over 50 TOTAL carbs per day.....and like to stay 20 net carbs or under. I know I don't get my fiber from vegetables...but I still get some fiber in. Today that mostly came from the chocolate bar - but I don't have that daily. So - what do you all think of my day of eating? Still did pretty well I think. The 108 sugar was a bit of a jump from being 77 fasting. That 57 was pretty low too... Maybe I need to try 8 units instead of the 10. I'll see what the doctor thinks tomorrow. Picture via Pixabay
