Morning check in: yesterday went “moderately” well with the family reunion eating extravaganza, including a pie baking contest. What went well: I did not get lost in eating pie. What did not go well: earlier in the day the blueberry muffins and lemon cookies caught the attentiion of my primitive brain and I ate one of each. Blood sugar responded by going into the STRATOSPHERE! Higher than I have ever seen it, I think. I was amazed! By the time the pie contest came around after dinner, I was not really very interested in eating more sugar, and ate just enough to judge the pies and was not tempted AT ALL to eat more. And I’m not tempted today either! It will likely take 3 days by historical experience for blood sugar to calm down. Today I plan to eat two meals, protein for lunch (left over steak) and protein for dinner (probably more leftover steak!)
