Freedom, I broke away for 1 day




This weekend was great! Friday I went to Dairy Queen and had some onion rings and a hot fudge sundae! I bolused accordingly. My bg's elevated to 225...wow! Normally I would have been mad at myself for "Cheating" but I felt free eating like everyone else. It felt good to break away from my diabetic thoughts.."No ice cream, cake or sugar" I don't make a habit of "Cheating" but I enjoyed it! I think every once in a while we should break free, have that one thing we've been dying to have but make sure you enjoy it in moderation! I had a wonderful day on Friday...

Oh No! Hawaiian BBQ

Last night I had one of my favorite things to eat, Hawaiian BBQ! I
didn't indulge in it like I wanted to; I had 1 tablespoon of mac
salad and the rest was all meat.
Omg!! It was so good it made me want to smack my momma, but in
return it smacked me right in the face! I bolused for 40 carbs and 2
hours after dinner my BG's was 191!!!!
I tried to figure it out and what I didn't factor in was the hidden
sugar in the sauce!!! no dipping in the BBQ sauce and I didn't add extra sauce, I can tell the food is cooked in the sauce; I could tell. So, I bolused before bed and walked around the area and walked my stairs (16) 10 times up and down. I woke up this morning and my BG's were 104.I've come to this conclusion...I will not stop eating H-BBQ because I don't eat it all the time, I will figure out how to make sure I bolus correctly next time.

Be Blessed and Have a Happy Friday

5:45 am

It's early here, good thing the alarm clock went off, my Bg's are low;
63!
I hate being low! My legs shake and I get overly excited about
everything. I am shocked I am low.

Last night I decided to have sum 10 chicken nuggets (5=15g) and about
10 French fries (22g); yummy for my tummy! My before bed bg's was 195
after almost 2 hours...just have to watch it! Luckly I don't eat
nuggets and fries all the time or I need to make sure I take more than
5 units of insulin---I thought 5 units would be enough.
Work is going to be a little crazy for the rest of the week! We are
short staffed. Lord, please give me the strength to make it at work w/
o killing anyone ( just a figure of speech). Cause I am going to need
you today; like everyday.

Stress messes w/ my Bg's and I don't need that today!

Don't talk about it....

I called my Mom to tell her about this strawberry stand we have. I let her know they would make good strawberry shortcakes. My Mom asked me not to talk about it because she is on a "SLIM FOR LIFE" diet. My Momma offended me...don't talk about it!!! Heck, I have been a diabetic for a while and no one alters their conversation about food for me; not that I would ask them to!!!

I can't believe her....Let's talk about all of those Sunday dinners where I had to count the number of potatoes I ate, the small piece of cornbread I barely could eat, the peach cobbler's, apple pies, strawberry sundae's, etc....DON'T TALK ABOUT IT!!!!!

Let's not talk about it...
