The other day, I had my first binge in 5 weeks. I ate sugar laden foods, a killer on my blood sugars. It takes me about 3 days to get it out of my system. The day after my morning sugar was 173, ouch! My A1C test is Friday, boy did I blow it.

    Yep, we've all had those days. But we're only human so it's going to happen once in a while. The trick is getting back in the driver's seat with it. So bravo you for saying it out loud and dealing with it! I don't think anyone can kick me as hard as I do after those times of boredom or stress or just plain old 'I don't want to' moments when my inner 2 year old comes out to play. So, if I'm stuck in a hole, I really try to put down the shovel and climb out. Thank you for reminding me that how I react is what is going to make the difference!
