Serbian Orthodox Christmas

Basically today I took the formulas and ratios the nurse gave me and self-adjusted them to my lifestyle, with relatively good results. I'll explain later, but my lowest of the day was 71 and was probably just the result of too much fat in my dinner. Otherwise kept stable, ordered a 3 month supply of everything (lancets, test strips, needles, insulin, etc.) which set me back about $600 or so. That hurts worse than the finger pricks!


11:43 -> 241 Took 5 units with my 105c cereal. Should stay steady, which is good after all the lows I’ve been having.
2:19 -> 83 What? That’s a 160 point drop when I should have stayed level. Had a 42 carb pb&j.
3:30 -> Intermission 20c cup of blueberries.
5:03 -> 150 Took 5 units with dinner of quinoa, chicken and veg 40c, s. potatoes 50c, carrot cake 48c. That’s about a 30:1 ratio.
7:59 -> 106 Had a 10c ½ cup of blueberries, 5c peanuts and 40c cookie. At 11:00 I had a brownie 15c
12:19 -> 126 Had 5 units with a Hamburger and Fries and a black beer.
1:59 -> 71 Had a pack of Pez candies and a guiness
3:44 -> 90 Felt my sugar on the rise, the fatty foods will definitely keep it up with their slow digestion.
