    Good Morning- BG @ 11:00 pm was 100. This was 2:30 minutes after starting dinner. I had my typical carbs of 165 and was able to work out again as I normally do. So should begin to see lower numbers for the 2 times a day I test. These are fasting and post.

    To all have a great Sunday.

    Yep, blew the progress I had made in getting consistent sub-100 readings with last week's carb control issues.

    Tonight was 106 2 hrs after dinner. Total carbs to this point were: 46, net of 27. Protein was pretty high though: 215 (40% goal of 281). Could the high protein be part of what's jerking my numbers up?

    Good evening to all... BG @ 9:29pm was 113. Exactly 2 hours after dinner.

    Total carbs today was 228. Went a few calories over my total, being 1,875 should be 1,850.

    Did not exercise today, but will Monday.


    Have a great week to all. By the way, incredible moon at our window this evening.:bigsmile:

    Total daily carbs were 139

    Hot and dry - yeah, it's summer here.

    90 something carbs for the day, net was in the 60's though, and 2 hr post was 92.

    Hid from the heat most of the afternoon in the gym, so that may have something to do with the nice numbers right now!

    Summer here in SC too.

    BG at 9:11pm was 109. 2:00 after dinner.

    Carbs today @ 222. TO many. K Caffee, I agree with your earlier comments and need to do a better job of keeping my carbs in the 150-200. Exercise makes a difference, but I would have better numbers getting my carbs back in line. Thanks for your advise.

    Everyone have a great Tuesday.

    Post dinner (2 hr 15 min) number was 102. Hot and humid today but ended the day with wind and another rainstorm. Lots of limbs and leaves to pick up! I hope tomorrow is more calm... and cooler would be nice!

    101 tonight

    It's settling down slowly. I guess when I threw myself out of ketosis that I really fouled things up. Been HUNGRY for just about anything I can get my hands on, though I've managed to stay out of mom's cookies. Hoping that over the next few days as I get back into a good keto state this blasted monster goes to sleep. Getting tired of having to rummage in the fridge after midnight to stop the hunger cramps! Or worse - ignoring the hunger cramps, and waking up to another fasting number over 130, like this morning!

    so I have been sick the last couple of days, no thanks to my husband coming home for the weekend with a cold. The last 3 days my bg has been high for me, but I am trying to help it along with some extra insulin. Tonight at 90 mins past dinner it was 97. Not too bad considering the rest of the day it was between 114-160. Can't wait to shake this cold and fever to get my good numbers back.

    I got busy and didn't check BG until 2 hrs. 45 min. but thought I'd post anyway...86. I thought I'd try an evening snack of popcorn. I have a feeling it will turn out to be a poor choice when I check in the a.m. But it was good!

    Good evening everyone... BG @ 9:14pm was 96.:happy:

    Very pleased because I had more carbs than I should, but the very intense exercise helped immensely.

    Hope everyone has a great Thursday.

    Dinner carbs were ghastly, entire meal was (but absolutely NO regrets for consuming it all) :bigsmile:
    probably 83 carbs (wings & fries from place w/no stats)

    Total carbs for the day were 166 (normally am under 140)

    Treadmill for ~30 minutes before meter reading...or am sure reading would have been off the charts, lol

    Tonight's reading was 106. It was hot and muggy today, but eased up a bit tonight so my evening stroll with the pup was pleasant.

    Have a wonderful Friday!

    2 hrs post dinner was 86, but if the current trend holds true, I'll be sky rocketing tomorrow morning. May pull an all nighter tonight and burn through a pack of strips to see if I actually bottom out, of if these AM horrors are just the dawn effect haunting me.

    Total carbs today: 65
    90 mins in the weight room, so burned a TON of muscle glycogen. That might have helped.

    Still hot and dry here - typical summer, though cooler than the last couple of years. Forecast is for a cool down possible this weekend, and MAYBE some drizzle around the 4th (still a looooong way out, so we'll see. Some how I doubt it. ::Grins::)

    Great day on carbs, not too bad for fasting numbers, but almost no activity (house chore day, and I've been putting it off for too long. ::Grins::) So, the post dinner of 96 hurts, but is still perfectly acceptable.

    Horribly hot here (102 - I don't know when we got moved to Arizona, but I want to go home again, please.) and dry, which is why I didn't do much - hid inside all day in the AC. Supposed to cool down this weekend and next week. And, the stuff that turns mythical about May has a small, but steady chance of visiting. We might actually wind up with enough moisture to have a green summer and colorful fall! (Wait, I'm dreaming right?)

    Hi to all ,,, Again, had more carbs , cooking out hamburgers. Plan was to have one with bun 100% Whole Wheat. But burger was so good had two with bun.

    So wasn't sure what to expect; BG @ 10:15pm was 81. 2:00 hours after dinner. Anyway , I will take it as my Fasting number was 96.

    So anyway, weather was intense with high humidity, no Arizona here and the ocean is packed.

    Everyone have a great Saturday.

    Total carbs today were 77, with the adjustment for net carbs, I was still in the 60's.

    Nice day, and some actual mythical wet stuff fell this morning. (Sadly, I was still asleep.)

    Absolutely lazy day for the body, but the head has been buzzing like a kicked bee hive. But, that's not what keeps the numbers in check. Surprisingly only 108 after dinner. Some how have to get the head back in the game, and get moving again.

    Something's wrong here. Good wrong, but wrong. No exercise, OK carbs (49 for the day), and a 2 hour reading of 97.

    Why is it the days I'm at, or under, carbs with a BIG exercise day I struggle to haul the post dinner numbers under 100, but the days I don't exercise, and stay under carbs it slips into the 90's easily?

    2 hr. number was 116...a little higher than usual lately, but still ok. Today ended up a gorgeous day with less humidity. It's supposed to be in the high 70's for the next few days!
