This an holiday from across the pond. It is a day when one eats a lot of turkey, mash potatoes, stuffing, and pumpkin pie. What I did in preparation was the following:
After the walk the blood sugar was 6.32
The holidays are hard when you have to balance being diabetic and the food. Most days I am extremely strict, but with the holiday I had to plan some extra steps. I will be walking this evening again top have good fasting blood sugars tomorrow morning.
I am not condoning eating carby food, but there are some times when you might have to plan for it. This is when the holidays have a lot to be desired.
- Swam 2 miles this morning to serve penance ahead of time for eating carby foods
- Kept the portion size of the carby stuff small
- Made sure to walk it off for 50 minutes afterwards
