So last night i had a Christmas night out. Started with a glass of prosecco with strawberries getting ready at home.(didnt eat, they just look pretty), some dance music on to get me in the mood.
Then to a house party. Lots of perfect low carb nibbles on offer, and more prosecco. Great start. So far so good. Then 9pm we all piled in taxis and headed to our restaurant for food. This is where for me it went the shape of a pear. Pulci Pizza. Yes, Italian. Nothing low carb in starter section apart from tomato and mozzarella which I selected. For main course, options ONLY high carb, pizza, pasta. Then waiter came to give us 3 special options. Oh this could be chicken, steak, or SOMETHING suitable for me. Nope. 3 more pasta options! So I picked hot n spicy pizza. I thought i could pick off the good stuff and leave the rubbish. I hadn't taken into account the alcohol non resistance. Disguarded my insulin resistance! And my hunger from days of not eating. So the only thing left on the plate was the crust. I thought I had got away with it. Check out my libre results taken during the evening. Started eating about 10.30pm. Then check out my readings taken during the night! Took me by surprise, ish. Rise later than anticipated, but anticipated non the less.
This morning my breakfast is my 1st attempt at low carb chocolate rum truffles with a cup of tea. Get up and catch up on Strictly. What a lovely way to spend a Sunday.
I feel very blessed with my life as reading the posts some are facing great challenges. Thoughts are with you. Hugs where needed.
