Happy World Diabetes Day

BS: 95

Going blue today for World Diabetes Day 2009. I will be participating in The Big Blue Test today! I'll be wearing blue while I do it too! This year's theme for World Diabetes Day is Diabetes Education and Prevention.

Breakfast: Leftover eggplant/mushroom lasagna (yummy) post-meal 102
Lunch: 2 homemade sausage patties and an orange; pre-meal 91; post-meal 112
Dinner tonight out with my husband. We are trying to go on more dates.


Today's Randomness: Both our male dogs like it when ice cubes fall out of the dispenser onto the floor (accidentally, of course)...one likes to play with them, but the other one eats them...

Progress....

My earlier post got me thinking so I decided to go back 2 months and 1 month to see where I was then. Here are the results:



By the way, I do hour 5 tests so that I can see where I am once the Humalog is spent. Once I get my dosing where it needs to be, I'll go back to doing 2 hour PP tests. I can't spare 3 more strips each day for now.

More good numbers....

This MDI might actually be working. I've been having pretty decent numbers (including fasting, except for Monday morning). Still seems so "up in the air", what works one day might not work the next, etc. Am I destined to eating the same thing every day so that my numbers will be right? Sometimes, I think that would be easier. I've pretty much been doing that for lunch anyway, breakfast too. Dinner is always the variant. I'll keep working on it.
