It's irritating isn't it
@Hopeful34 , that the best way for us is to pre think we want some cherries, take insulin, then wait to eat them. Or maybe sneak one or two so our levels don't go up too much. Sometimes like with these cherries I was ready to say to heck with it!!!
I forgot to say this was at 9 pm at night. It ended up working out, mostly lol. My BG level should have went up but I must have had enough insulin from earlier and the exercise bike helping because I never went above 6.4 . Then I dropped some and ate more cherries which I didn’t mind at all! The biggest problem was in taking insulin so late as I had an extra kick after about 6 hours and I went a little low to 4.1 at 3 am and my alert woke me. Even though I had been steady at 5.4 for a few hours before bedtime. So I ate a piece of dried pineapple, turned off my phone and went back to sleep until the morning.
I wake up if I go too low but not usually until around 3.2-3.4, my alert is set at 4.2. I just don't always wake up easily to highs. As long as I don't have a pump failure I am okay without low alerts!
My husband is asking me if I want a second bag of cherries because they are so good. I just don't think I can go through 2 bags in the 3-5 days they last. But I am so tempted to try!
