Just 10 units of insulin metabolized my 1200 net calories
yesterday. I wanted to see what would
happen if I did not take the last 10 units in the afternoon yesterday. I peaked at 213, and I should have taken the
afternoon 10 units. I wanted to see my
fasting glucose today, and it is at its usual 150. Believe it or not, this is progress,
indicating that I got the usual fall in glucose on just 10 units instead of
20. But today, I will take the usual 20
units and see where that takes me for fasting glucose tomorrow. I am still encouraged. My insulin needs are still dropping. And I am only a few days away from starting
the barley grass pills that have been proven to reduce fasting glucose by as
much as 25%, which would take me into the “pre-diabetic” range of fasting
glucose.
I am out of barley bread for today, so I will use Barley and
Cheese for my second serving of barley.
I’ll be making barley bread once per week, as a loaf lasts 8 days.
Here is the menu for today.
BREAKFAST: 1/3 cup
Tsampas Cereal, 1/3 cup blueberries, stevia, 2 tbs half and half
LUNCH: 1 can tuna,
cream sauce, 2 pieces Pepperidge Farm Oatmeal Bread, celery, small apple
DINNER: 1 whole
Slim-Fast Protein Drink, 1/12 casserole barley and cheese, salad, 2 Marketside
mini-brownies
SNACK: 1/12 pan
gingerbread, coffee, 2 dried apricots
Minus 60 minutes walking inside (ice storm today) – 324
calories. ! am walking longer to get that gingerbread!
Net calories 1204
