Thought I would share my revelation from Saturday night.... After weeks of high BGs (rarely below 10) I went to a friends party on Saturday night (she is moving away, so I was quite sad) and I drank rather a lot of Rose (at least a bottle and I don't usually drink alcohol hardly at all). I was very good food wise and only nibbled on carrot sticks and had some chile con carne without rice or pitta bread.
When I got home I spotted my monitor and thought... hmmm, I wonder what my BGs are after all that wine - it was a miracle! Only 6.5! I have heard red wine is supposed to be quite good but didn't think Rose would have the same effect. Well, I know what I am doing from now on - shame I can't have some during the day at work!
