Trying to balance my insulin with my carb intake. seems like there's really no consistency or formula that works. I've cut back on insulin in both morning and evening shots. May need to cut back more because it seems like I ate a ton of food yesterday and blood glucose was uncomfortably low several times. my doctor hates it when I go below 90 but really I don't start to feel it until I get down to 70. I ate dinner at 5:30 and started feeling wonky before 8:00 B.G. was 67 so I ate yogurt and a boiled egg. BG was at 86 when I went to bed, 110 when I woke up. I waited a couple hours before eating anything or taking a shot, just drinking water and it shot up to 127. Took 15 units and ate two boiled eggs. It's now 2:15 and husband just informed me he wants to go to Outback for dinner. I'll check my B.G. again before we go but what in the heck am I going to eat there. Seems stupid to me to go out and eat a salad with grilled chicken on it and have to pay $15 for what I can make my way at home for a 10th of the price. Since I never eat beef or pork, chicken is pretty much my only protein option when eating there. some places have salmon but I can't afford to eat it at restaurant prices. I do buy it at the grocery when they have a sale. Another thing about most restaurants is that they don't discount your meal when you ask them to hold the car by stuff, but if you ask for an extra side of safe veggies they chat you more. Some thing's just just wrong, wrong, wrong about that. I plan to log my weight every Monday but still weigh each morning. Curious how it goes up and down several pounds from one day to the next???
207.0 lb Lost so far: 5.0 lb.    Still to go: 57.0 lb.    Diet followed reasonably well.

Spell check sure messed up some of my words on that posting. Guess I'm going to have to reread before I post stuff. Spell check seems to have a mind of its own, ha!
