    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?

    Good Monday evening... BG @ 9:08pm was 109. 2:00 hours after dinner.

    Carbs today were 234. Broke down and tried the sugar free coconut Russell Stover's. They were delicious, have not had those in almost year. I finished all 6 and added over 58 carbs. So this is probably the reason for going past my goal of 200.

    But I was pleased the number was only 109. I ate those 6 about 90 minutes before dinner. MY goal for 2:00 hours is to be mid low 100. So 109 was not that bad.

    Here's hoping Tuesday goes well.

    2 hrs post dinner: 109

    Not jumping for joy, but not totally disappointing. At least it's heading in the right direction. Carbs to this point: 55 (added a couple more for the last snack, so AM numbers may jump a little.)

    Retiree... Great 2 hour reading tonight. Congrats.


    Hi to all... BG @ 9:25 was 106. Thought it might be lower since my total carbs were only 122 today.

    Still raining here in SC. Hope everyone has a great Wednesday.
