    90 (awesome because I am eating conference food- but that is also after a heavy night of drinking vodka)

    Are you on metformin? It’s common for BG to be lower than expected for a day or so after drinking alcohol on metformin. Something to be aware of because it can drop dangerously low.

    way too high - 144

    Now that I am back from my conference my blood sugar has been a lot higher which I am sure is partly due to returning home and eating some comfort food to settle back in but the other part I somehow think is related to the building stress of going back to work and having to check and respond to 5 days of emails...Exercise will be a MUST to keep it under control.

    104

    BG numbers are always so curious to me. At about 6 PM last night, I had a chicken leg quarter for supper - so no carbs. My lower morning numbers seem to be associated with more protein with the evening meal.
