    This AM has been crazy! I overslept & my dog didn't wake me as usual. I ate before I realized I hadn't checked my FBS. So I'll check it just before lunch. Have a good weekend all :)

    After a 148 yesterday mine was 99 today. Not sure how that is even possible as I carbed up a bit yesterday (pizza and pecan pie). I did do a ton of yard work and rode my bike for a few minutes. Maybe that helped. Happy Monday all!

    124 today for me as well. I'm beginning to think that my readings are one day in arrears. For instance - I had a great day Saturday. I ate pretty dang good and did an 18 mile bike ride that day. Next morning my sugars were 148 (Friday was awful for me). Then Sunday I again did kinda bad (pizza and 2 pieces of pie) but yesterday morning my reading was 99. Then yesterday I did great! Low carb all day, a decent walk and a bike ride and under calorie goal. This morning I get a 124. I am betting tomorrow will be the day my FBS reflects yesterday. Am I just loopy in thinking this?

    94 today! @mrron2u my diabetic nurse told me exercise can have a delayed reaction, to what extent I am not sure.

    Thanks! I'll see how the experiment goes when I check tomorrow morning. I plan to have another on plan day with some mild riding again too.

    It's going back up again...yesterday was 119 & today was 118. I've been fighting an infection so antibiotics may up the carb intake :) Sympathy eating

    The same thing happens to me when taking antibiotics. I had surgery on my jaw on 11/12/2015 & just finished off my antibiotics. Between the antibiotics and the jaw surgery (had to refrain from eating hard stuff like carrots & cabbage which helps fill me up), I gained about 19 pounds and my FBG got as high as 272 mg/dL. Today it was 99 mg/dL & I don't feel so ravenously hungry anymore, so I think I'm finally back on track.

    I haven't been here or on MFP since having surgery on my jaw on 11/12/2015 which had me back on antibiotics and refraining from hard foods like raw carrots & cabbage which normally helps to fill me up. I just got off my antibiotics on Monday (11/23/2015) and seem to finally have my FBG at a good number (99 today). However, during those 2 weeks after surgery, I gained 19 pounds and had FBG values up to 272 mg/dL. With Thanksgiving arriving, I won't start logging (& dieting) again until December 1st as I know I won't be able to stick to a diet over the holiday weekend while being out of town visiting relatives.

    below are the FBG values I recorded since my jaw surgery on 11/12/2015:
    11/16: 128
    11/17: 87
    11/18: 165
    11/19: 245
    11/22: 272
    11/25: 99
