    I hate to admit this one. 239. I ate a very small piece of pie last night. I'd been planning to have some for the occasion and I enjoyed it and took some extra insulin. But this reading is just excellent confirmation that this kind of treat must be a very rare thing.

    I've had days like that when I'm doing everything right. An occasional treat won't kill you. They're learning experiences <3:)

    Wow, that is low. What do you mean by over corrected?

    4.4 (79.4) and I can't believe how stable and ok my blood sugar has been for the most part since being off my metformin!! I eat 1950 calories divided into 3 meals and 3 snacks and I thought it would drive my sugar through the roof but at the 3 hour mark when I have to eat again lol its returned to high 4s or low 5s. I am less nervous but still super watchful. I see the dietician on Friday for evaluation and I get to go on one of the scales that measures everything but the kitchen sink! Excited!!!! The good news is I seem to be maintaining and not losing!

    Yikes glad you are ok!!!! I tend to over feed my occasional low too. Hope the rest of your day goes great!! Were you exercising or what do you think caused the low? If I exercise hard in the morning no matter eating properly or not my sugar will drop by 4pm and be in my boots by 6 so if I "feel" it I will eat an extra something like 1/4 of a kashi or fibre 1 bar and a few almonds and that is enough to reverse it without effects either way! Have a great day!!

    That is a great improvement in your A1C, leanmachine -- you worked hard for this with your diet and exercise plan!

    8.3 (149.4) Here's something I just thought of this morning. If you wake up hungry, and your FBS is high, could it be because your liver was dumping glucose during the night?

    7.6 (136.8) I've looked back over my logs, and there are very few mornings where my BG was below 6. I think I just have that morning high. I've even tried not eating past 7, or nothing after supper. So, the rest of the day is pretty steady and within range, so I'm not worried about it.
    Have a lovely day everyone!
    And good for you leanmachine.

    yes, the goal is not to starve yourself
