Hello my friends, how was your day?
mine was good for a change I didn't
eat anything most the day to get my
sugar back down cause it was up in
the 5's this morn why I have no clue.
I ate a fish sandwish a few hrs B-4
I had to go to therapy at 3 today &
when I got done with therapy O M G !
I felt like a limp wash rag I hurt so bad
I came home didn't EVEN feel good.
I took my sugar test a few hrs after
coming home & it read 232, that was
the 1st I've seen it that low in awhile.
So I guess if I don't eat all day it helps
But yet they want me to eat 3-4 X's aday?
really? I can't win for losing it seems like.
But anyway, after I took my sugar test I
smoked a toke & went to bed I hurt so bad
in my legs & back I had to lay down awhile.
Around 10 pm hubby came to bed & woke
me up, well hell I had to go potty, get me
something to drink & eat NOW I'm awake.
I hope by the time I get my 12 sessions of
therapy in, my legs & arms will be a lot
stronger, & pray my sugar is under control.
So how was yall's day while I was busy?

I'm sure doing all I can to keep it low
& I've found that if I eat late in the day
& nothing during the day it lowers it.
It may not be the BEST idea but if
it keeps my sugar low then I'm good
I don't really like eating all day anyway.

@2ndchances24 - We have the habit to eat late in the day.
Eating often during the day may be annoying.

@LadyDuck I found that eating late
in the day (B-4) 6pm my sugar count
comes out pretty good for me & I don't
mind eating late in the day if it helps.

I hope you can get your blood sugar under control. I'm glad you got it down as far as you did.
Have you looked into the Keto diet? I know it's helpful for diabetics. I found a keto friendly bread I really love. No sugar and a few carbs. A lot less than regular bread. I watch everything I eat.

@2ndchances24 I know you need to keep your carb intake down, your protein and fat up. If you can do that, you will lower your blood sugar.

@just4him Yea I'm learning all that
it's just when you have a husband that
dosen't get the concept of what I can eat
it makes it hard to get it through his head.

No I haven't, but I have heard of it
I have a list of foods that I've done
some research on that I can eat.
My sugar Dr appt is the 26th of
Jan which is pretty far off & I'm
just winging it with what I find
till I can see the sugar Dr.

@RebeccasFarm I'm sorry, I wish I could help you
on what's going on, I've got neighbors too that get
on our last nerves too & the best thing I can do is
Look the other way & smoke me a J & go about my
day, watch Tv, take a nap, go deal with something
in the cabin, ANYTHING to keep my mind busy

@2ndchances24 I will not say I understand it because I do not go through it but the best I can say is, I understand where you are coming from. It took awhile for my dad to get used to it too. Eventually it becomes second nature. You got this Gayle!

@VivaLaDani13 Yea I know, but sometimes
I just feel like what's the point if I'm going to
die from it anyway.

It's been a ongoing battle that's for sure I get SO TIRED
of having to stick a needle in me every single day
I have to take a break from it but I KNOW that's
not doing me any good but I get so bruised up
I have to just have a break from it for a few days.
