I was completely on track with carbs and exercise yesterday. I kept carbs below 25 net gm. and protein at just over 100 gm. I went to Pilates. Later in the day I stayed active, worked in the garden. Yesterday my day started with high numbers (144), which only went up after breakfast (157 four hours later!), but after Pilates, they dropped down into the 120s. I went to bed at 11 with a reading of 126.
One thing that went wrong yesterday was that I did the Starbuck's drive-thru and ordered a trenta shaken passion iced tea, unsweetened. But they gave it to me sweetened. I was down the road on to an appointment by the time I discovered that, and I was really thirsty, so I went ahead and drank it. That was around 6:15 p.m. I drank a lot of water after that, into the evening, and so when I check my number at bed time, I thought I might have dodged a bullet. According to the Starbuck's website, one of those beverages has 36 gm of carbs in it.
So, this morning at 6:15 a.m., my blood sugar was 145. That's been a bit disheartening this morning.
Back to fashioning a day of perfect compliance.

137 this morning, ate too much last night - my dear husband grilled some bratwurst and sweet italian sausages and left them on the kitchen counter for me. Oh boy! I was hungry, regained consciousness after I have already downed 3 links (too late!). This is what happened and I am sticking to my story![]()
