The thing is, with me, small amounts of regular sugar don't seem to bother me.

I've checked my bg at all hours in the middle of the night (following eating my

cereal), and although this is really the only times I can't seem to be

consistent, despite the sugar, I'll often get readings that are good for me or

even low.

yeah, I've tried the mini weats... I think the last one was brown sugar or some

such thing. Also tried strawberry.

Hi all:

Oo I hate this subject when I have been bad. Actually Friday I ranged from 5.3

to 8.9. Daturday was 3.2 to 6.8. Sunday was ahem

ahem. 14.2 down to 9.3 Monday I can't remember right now. Tuesday was 10.2 to

7.8. this morning I was horrified though. It was so

hot in our house. 100.4 and I forgot and drank about three glasses of juce and

my sugar was a wopping 20 this morning. Oh man I

couldn't believe I did that. This afternoon though I am back down to 9.3 and

hope to get down even more by bedtime. 20 though. I

couldn't believe how much damage juce can do.

To keep spiritually fit, consult the Great Physician.

Love and hugs, and the furry ones.

Hi Dave:

Oh I agree. Even though I don't like admitting to those high sugars which made

me look really bad, it is good to be accountable.

But I don't feel judged here, just encouraged. I know that most of us slip up

sometimes. And it has been making me take my sugar

more often to check it up. it is a good thing for us to be doing I think.

Hi Windy,

Try eating something with a set number of carbs so you limit the impact of the

sugar.

I do not know where you live, but here in the united states, there is a candy

called smarties. A package of smarties has 6 grams of carbohydrates.

6 grams of carbohydrate will raise your sugar around 1.0 points.

so if you were 2.2, you would eat 3 packages of smarties to come up to around

5.2.

If you drank three glasses of juice, how much would that raise you? It is not

measurable.

The main tool used for predicting your increase of blood sugar is a thing called

glucose tablets. Those are pretty much sold everywhere. 1 4 gram glucose tablet

will raise your sugar 1.0 points or there about.

The concept though is that you can predict your blood sugar and not spike...

just find something that has a set number of carbohydrates in it and use it.

Try to find something with 4 to 6 carbohydrates in it and understand that that

will raise you around 1.0 points.

Hey!! ! You're right, we are not here to judge, only help and

encourage each other! If we can say out loud what's on our mind, it helps

everyone! We are a peer support group, and that is what we are about!!

Not admitting to slip ups does not make them go away!! Smile!

Aren't weekends the killer? I am going to a big picnic this weekend with

all the wrong foods-and iI wil enjoy every single bad bite (I will try to

keep the amount I eat donw, however.)

Re: your blood sugar results

I haven't posted in a few days.

Well, the weekend was rough, barbecues, pizza parties and such! I was bad!!

Saturday, I ranged from 6.3 (113) to 7.2 (129)

Sunday 6.6 (119) to 8.1 (146)

Monday 5.6 (101) to 6.5 (117)

Today 5.0 (90) to 6.2 (111)

Getting back to lean meat and vegetables sure helps!!

I'll try to spend most of my time smoozing with the people. Maybe I will

loose weight walking around to different tables???

Re: your blood sugar results

Just take small bites Pat! Or as my wife calls it, just do a lot of grazing!

Ll that sugar Dave! Try Cheerios with Splenda and raspberries.

Re: your blood sugar results

I'm actually experimenting with a different cereal--frosted mini-wheats!

Now, the sugar is 1 gram higher than Lucky Charms, but that's in a whole

serving. It looks like half a serving, or about 12 pieces, works pretty

well. That's still around 22 grams of carbohydrates, but about 6 grams of

sugar. The greatest benefit is that it's a whole wheat product, and

therefore is high in fiber (about 3 grams with half a serving).

Yeah, , juice is one of the worse things to drink. A 4 oz. galss of

jice is about twice the amount of carbs in one piece of fruit.

They have them at wallmart or dollar stores.

There are probably 15 in a rolled up package and the rolled up package is just a

little rounder than a pencil.

I think there are around 30 packages in a bag for a few dollars.
