6.0 this Christmas morn. Feliz navidad

Oh dear. At least you are in the right place. Stay safe.

Hola, hola from sunny Mexico! Been getting decent numbers and im super thrilled. This morning was my best number yet 5.8! What….usually I’m 6.3 so that was fun. Even after breakfast I was 6.1 Christmas isn’t until tomorrow for us but wishing you all a lovely holiday season! Adios.

Not a seafood lover at all….but it would be a perfect low carb dish.

After a week of increasing numbers I have finally given myself a smack down….i have proven to myself that I cannot eat carbs. No more corn tortillas. Even just a couple of small ones….my body just can’t. Holiday or not, no cheating! sigh, I’ll just watch hubby eat. 7.1 this morning, 9.9 two...

Hola from sunny Mexico! Dang, it’s hot here….but it’s all good, better than the alternative back home. Blood a little high, but not awful…it’s the heat and slight change of diet for sure. Didn’t check this morning but we walked into town for breakfast (2km) wandered through some stores...

Hola! After a long travel day, poor sleep and odd food I woke with a 6.2. Had breakfast at our favourite spot and ate three corn tortillas with my eggs and chorizo….and two hours later (we walked there and back and got some groceries)was just a 7.2. Happy enough with that. It’s super hot...

5.8, this after I made the bed and 5th w a load of laundry in. my family doctor called at 9pm last night to say how happy she was with the test results! She’s so sweet.

Back from my early morning endoscopic ultrasound….ohhhh, I’m a little groggy. Thought I’d check my glucose and it’s 6.0, pretty good for after procedure! No nasties found by the doctor and I’m cleared to fly to Mexico. Just will need a yearly MRI to check things. He said things are pretty...

Is this the Berberine effect…..a lovely 5.4 this morning! I’ve even seen two numbers in the 4’s, before meals, this week. Unheard of! Food continues to be ultra low carb, of course. endoscopic ultrasound tomorrow….pretty sure it’s going to be ok.

An amazing 5.9 this morning. Haven’t seen a five in the morning for a long time. leaving for Mexico on Friday….yipee! My blood sugar will suffer….and I’m ok with that.

Thanks. I’ve had one before so I do understand what to expect….i just was caught off guard, the phone call was a complete surprise! Did call my doctor but have heard nothing back. The MRI report is out there, I just can’t get a copy of it yet. I wore off the stress by completely cleaning the...

6.3 this morning ive just had a long cry….got a call from the gastroenterologist and I’m heading for an endoscopic ultrasound next week. I still haven’t gotten results from the MRI but obviously they found something. I’m absolutely terrified. Calling my doctor this afternoon and if she’s not...

https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC6434235/ lots of chatter about Berberine. The above link is very interesting and if you focus on table two, the results are significant. Berberine has been extensively studied but doesn’t get much attention becasue no drug companies can make money...

6.4 this morning. Still no results from the MRI….no news is good news?

6.7 this morning….it never changes, lol amazing day here, you’d never think we were at the end of November. By now we should have. A pile of snow and we have nothing. Ski hills are not happy, but I am off to get a haircut. No news yet on the scan.

Scan done! No idea when I’ll get the results. As I was leaving the MRI room there was another lady waiting, I smiled at her….then I heard my name! She was a teacher I worked with years ago, wow, what a small world. Got out in time for my yoga class so that was a bonus! Did not do my morning...

6.6 this morning. I even saw a 5.8 before lunch! Haven’t seen a five in a very long time. feeling good about the scan tomorrow. Staying positive and know that if something evil is found they caught it before I had any symptoms and maybe easily treated….I’m sticking with that theory!

Another high reading. 7.0. I am worried about my pancreas. I have an MRI on Monday specifically to look at the dilated pancreatic ducts….I googled it, not good. My fingers are crossed it’s just scar tissue causing the problem. I’m truly scared.

On a lark I thought I’d pop on over to the Canadian diabetes site and check out their meals plans….it’s no better and kind of embarrassing. All meals were over 50 carbs each, and they really push low fat foods and vegetable margarine….ahhh. Lots of pasta, oatmeal, sweet potatoes, mashed...
