December 2019

My first MD after I was diagnosed as a type 2 diabetic told me to test my blood two days a week. On that day once upon getting out of bed and then 2 hours after "fork down" that evening.

I initially was testing Tuesday and Thursday, mostly because of my rotating watch (work) schedule. Now that Kathie has drifted from pre-diabetic to T2D herself, I am testing on her schedule (Monday and Thursday).

*I was surprised by a morning score this high! I had a very light dinner last night and kept waking up hungry. Finally, I got out of bed, drank some water and ate some dark chocolate chips.

2 My evening "score" is low because I had a salad for lunch and the salmon and broccoli for dinner.

b I kept waking up hungry and ate a couple of dark chocolate chips; this killed the hunger but apparently jacked my morning "score".

cThis is a lot lower than I had expected!

d I kept waking up feeling very hungry and finally ate some dark chocolates. They worked.
