    78. I was very ill last night and still not great this morning, so will have to watch it.

    Hope you feel better.

    Thanks! I feel better this morning but due to upset stomach, missed my evening meds, so my fasting this morning was 163. Hoping to get back on track!

    Still going along as usual - fasting between 90 and 101 every day the past 2 weeks.

    I had a big old argument with my husband then had a 144 after lunch, which is as high as I've been in a while. I hate cortisol from stress! Reading the forums I see a lot of people say they cured their diabetes with diet and now they are no longer diabetic. Well, I may be well controlled but I definitely still am diabetic. I may have a 4.7 A1c but the slightest problem and my glucose leaps up. Fortunately, jumping on my exercise bike will still bring it down quickly.

    I am under pretty tight control myself but as I have discovered, if I get sick, my numbers are all over the place. About 98% of the time my numbers are within the normal for non-diabetics, and the other 2% are high or low depending on how the rest of my body feels. It stinks!

    I am,sure you will. If I forget my Levemir I can be as high as 190 in the morning.

    95 - Happy Thanksgiving everyone!

    It turns out my Thanksgiving related stress was unnecessary since my high-carb hostess was too sick at the last minute to host, so my mom and I ended up scrambling to put something together last minute and had a much more modest meal - roasted green beans with almonds, stuffing, gravy, and lots of turkey. For some reason I had a premonition last night that I needed to make a pie, which I never do, and experimented with a slightly more diabetic friendly karo pecan pie (family recipe has 66g net carbs per slice) - subbed pumpkin for brown sugar, smashed banana for part of the karo syrup, added vanilla and cinnamon for flavor, used a lower carb crust, and ended up with 24g net per 1/8 pie sized slice.

    Peak thanksgiving bg: 129. 2 hrs later: 95. Yay!
