    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 hr. 15 min. BG was 106 tonight. Today was one of those perfect days, weatherwise. Hoping for a repeat tomorrow here and wherever you are!

    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.

    2 hour reading was 91. Today turned out another gorgeous day, weather-wise. Hoping everyone has a fun and safe 4th of July!

    Hmmm... sleep may not be a good choice for me. A totally lack-luster 115 and I slept most of the day.

    =102
    carbs today around 64 (lunch place only gave calories, had salad so ??)

    Hope everyone had a nice & safe 4th:drinker:
  • I take a lot of insulin. My doctor has told me that a two hour bg should be less than 160. I shoot for 1140. Keep carbs low aty each meal because a heavy carb load will increase the bg level.

    Good evening to all... BG @ 10:00pm was 100. Not surprised with this number.

    Hope everyone has a great Saturday.

    Not sure if this is the 2 hr mark or not, but 113

    Getting VERY frustrated with myself. I know what I need to be doing, but I don't seem to want to follow it. Because of this I'm getting readings all over the spectrum. Including a reading last night just before bed of 75 after a high yesterday of 168 (after breakfast because I was stupid - carbs with an already high reading. Feel free to thump me for that one!)

    After trampling carbs yesterday, I kept it VERY tight today: total carbs of 31 (net came in at 21). Really need to keep this macro stable, just having mental problems with the restriction.

    2 hr. 20 min. reading was 94 tonight.

    kcaffee...I totally understand! Last night snacking was out of control for me for some reason. I tried to be better today but the night isn't over!!! :devil:

    Hope this finds everyone's Saturday was great.

    BG@ 10:00pm was 109. 2:00 hours after dinner.

    Not displeased with this reading, since I had my biggest calorie day since Christmas holidays, although carbs were only 215. If I ate like this every day in 5 weeks I would gain 7 pounds. So, back to eating well after the July 4 holidays are over.

    Here's hoping everyone has a great Sunday.

    Good evening to all... BG @ 10:13pm was 106. 2:20 after dinner.


    Thought it might be lower, but had a banana 45 minutes after dinner, which might have caused it not to be where I expected.

    Looking forward to seeing fasting in am.

    Not going to be awake in another half hour, if I'm smart, so went a head and took the 1 hr test - 95.

    Dinner carbs: 50 (net 40), so a wonderful day there.
    2 hrs of cardio, some of it on a HIIT pace, so I'll see where I am in the morning. It's been settling around 110 recently, so I'm trying to coax it down into the low 100's regularly without sending my blood pressure plummeting.

    Good evening... BG @ 9:10pm was 93. Carb count was 188 and the intense exercise got my numbers back to where they need to be.

    Hope everyone has a wonderful Wednesday, wherever that is.

    Post dinner was 94. We're supposed to have a bit milder weather on the way and I sure hope they're accurate in that prediction! Have a good mid-week day!
