I am actually so glad I am slightly obsessed with checking my blood sugar.
Yesterday evening I was at 7.9 before dinner. I had a big meal of fried vegetables (broccoli, cabbage, mushrooms, pumpkin amd a bit of ricotta cheese) and actually had 2 helpings so I thought my bg would be really high - but I was planning to go out later and walk so I thought it would be ok.
1.5 hours later I was about to leave the house and thought I'd check to see how high I'd be now.....I was at 4.4.
No idea why I dropped so much after a big meal but I quickly ate a small piece of chocolate and made sure I packed my glucose when I left the house.
Scary to think had I not checked, I'd have discounted any sensations as being too high in sugar.
