Dreamfields

I tried dreamfields last night. They claim 40+ carbs in 2 oz of dry pasta (same as my usual "regular" pasta) but only 5 are "digestible". I have gotten pretty good at calculating my dosages when I eat pasta. I was 153 before dinner, ate and did my normal routine. 2 hours later I had climbed to 210. Took my correction (goal of 100) and four hours later I was up to 282. Took another correction and my lantus before bed. This morning was still at 229.

If I add up my dosage at dinner and my correction factors, it comes out to be almost exactly the dosage I would have taken if I had eaten my usual pasta and I still would have been high.

I don't think I really believe the 5g claim. But, it does taste great!

"The departure of our boys to foreign parts with the ever-present possibility that they might never return, taught the real value of photography to every father and mother. To many a mother the photograph of her boy in his country's uniform was the one never-failing consolation." -Louis Fabian Bachrach

It’s much easier for governments to create the appearance of security, than the reality of security.
