Pre lunch reading was 170 - due to the almonds I ate at my art studio earlier and didn't take insulin for I am sure, along with the half caff coffee and half and half with splenda I drank. I need to learn to drink my coffee black. It stays hotter longer, but when it isn't hot anymore I don't want it the way I want my sweetened coffee even when it is barely luke warm.
I took a single unit to cover the high and I'll see what happens to my lunch. I am hoping the unit will be right for lunch plus taking are of the high.
A week ago my blood sugars were in the mid 200's all day long. I was taking 16 unis of Lantus (split into two doses am and pm) plus I used a carb ratio of 1unit Humalog to 10 grams.
I am now taking less basal by 2 units and am using my carb ratio differently. I am barely eating any carbs, but I know I will metabolize the protein and will need some insulin to help with that so, I am taking 1 unit for when I eat a meal or a snack like the avocado pudding I ate last night.
It is amazing- I can eat a banana and a whole avocado plus some cacao nibs for 1 unit! My resistance to insulin that has been with me for a year or more might actually be getting lessened by eating this way. I hope I hope!
here's looking forward to some good fats:
yum.
Workout today was intervals on my trainer. 40 minutes was enough.
Tomorrow is workout 2 of New Rules of Lifting. I am really looking forward to it!
