woke up with BG's 270 at about 1am. not cool. I took a unit and went back to sleep. By 7 this morning I was 200. Maybe I was overzealous about the lower basal? or it could be a hormonal shift. After having diabetes for 14 years now- it could be anything.
like:
- tired,
- hormones,
- stress,
- food,
- bad carb counting,
- wrong basal,
- infection,
- stress,
- lack of rest,
- old insulin,
- did I say stress?
Thanksgiving is tomorrow. I spent 3 hours making a homemade apple pie with my daughter today. I won't be eating any of it, of course, but I like the creative part of the mixing and measuring. My daughter is old enough now to be a real help to me - which is awesome! We made a memory today.
Workout was # 1 of the B set in phase 1 of New Rules of Lifting for Women. I did bent leg deadlifts, lunges with barbells, overhead presses and lat pulldowns. I felt really worked when I was done. I totally lost all will to be awake at around 3 this afternoon. I think it's the lower carbs plus the workouts combined. My cells are like" Uh, hello? where's my fuel????"
SO when the half -caff coffee didn't work I went for the sugar free Rockstar. I am SO bad!!! but it kept me awake. I was mid- baking so no time for a nap. Besides, I am a horrible napper. I wake up panicked every time. Ruins the whole rest thing.
I grew these daisies
Last Thanksgiving and the one before, I ate vegetarian- so all side dishes and no main. This time is is all main and little sides!
I made a great side dish though- it is a cauliflower mash with cream cheese, garlic and parmesan. SO yum.
almost all paleo- minus the cheese. that's going to take time.
blessings to you all who are reading this, even if it is 6 months from now when you finally find this blog.
