[QUOTE="Annb, post: 2345642, member: 25851"] Yesterday was an unintentional fast day - just couldn't get around to making anything, so it was just tea and water. Plus a few sips out of a glass of apple juice Em prepared for me (along with a platter of various sweets, some prunes and some pistachios). She knows her way around my larder now so nothing is hidden from her - not even the jars of sweets kept for emergencies - either medical or sudden need to coerce children into doing something (actually left over from trick or treating supplies). Despite the fast BG was 22 by bed time. Today I took almost the largest dose of insulin my pen would deliver (58 units - it goes up to 60). Had scrambled eggs - so no carbs. BG down to 11.7 from 14.5 FBG. Another almost maximum dose of insulin before lunch of some brie with 2 small slices of GF sour dough bread, with lots of seeds and nuts as well as quinoa in it. Even so, carbs were 48 per 100 gm and with each slice 25 g, grams of carb consumed was about 24. Maths has never been my strong point (terrified by a teacher at grammar school and never recovered) but that looks about right. Dinner will be the duck I meant to have yesterday and some fried shredded Brussels sprouts. No more carbs today. [/QUOTE]
