[QUOTE="Kristin251, post: 1154973, member: 240838"] Hi Winnie, thank you too and you are very welcome Sorry to hear about your bs but not the end of the world as you know. I have a mantra " one bad meal equals 3 bad days". It seems even if I just over indulge in my normal good diabetic friendly foods it still takes days to get back to normal. I do commend you for at least choosing recess PB cups. Nothing better than PB and chocolate. Well, maybe a dark chocolate covered strawberry. Haha. Anyway, it will come back down as you are seeing. I understand too well how waking up higher than bed is frustrating. This is one other thing Rosedale taught me. Walk slow to moderate. Too much or too strenuous activity will raise you. Once your heart rate goes up adrenaline will kick in and raise you. I would get frustrated after a power walk and actually go up! Then I started a 15 min slow to moderate walks and it fell back into place. Those are the two min things Rosedale taught me. Also that once I'm IR it takes more time than the food was worth to come back to normal. That's why now I have learned one bite and savor the flavor is enough. All that being said I had one stinking piece of cheese last night and bs running 15-20 higher all day. I know better but sometimes I just don't care....until the next day. That particular cheese was not worth it and I'm still paying the price. Highest was 114 but higher than I like. Even took a small correction dose and it popped back up. Sometimes it's just a matter of time to regain sensitivity. Now give me some melted Brie or smoked Gouda it might have been worth it. In the end it confirmed once again dairy is not my friend. Tummy not so good today either. If I need bs to come back faster I cut way back on protein and meal size. I love guac and it has very little effect on my bs so I can eat a meal of it with celery sticks. Seems to deplete my glycogen stores and increase sensativity. I believe, but not sure, once I over eat carbs or protein and my glycogen sores are full everything turns to BS until they are depleted and I am back into ketosis. Glad you are getting back to normal. Always nice to chat with you [/QUOTE]
