Christmas family gatherings are tough!

Went to my family's Christmas gathering today and Chloe went low right before we ate. It actually helped because I was guessing about pretty much everything on her plate. Then, of course, she had a brownie and 2 cookies and I actually weighed those and made sure I had the correct carbs for them. It seemed as though every time I turned around she was eating a candy cane or a peppermint. On the way home in the car she was in the back seat and I hear crunching(another candy cane) and I told her to hand it over and she needed to quit eating things and not bolusing, these things have sugar in them. I told her to check her BG, was totally expecting a high number because God only knew if I factored everything right. I was so surprised, her BG was only 112!!! I have no idea what I did right(or wrong) but whatever it was worked out and I am so glad. I love numbers like that! :)

It's such a victory when you come out on the other side and you did it right. Congratulations.

Yea!

Wow, way to go Chloe (& Lori)! Will come you to a Christmas party with me & be my carb counter & bolus genius? You are good! Wonderful Chloe got to have fun & chomp candy canes.

That's great!!!! lol I guessed everything I ate at Thanksgiving, and I ended up high. My diabetic alert dog wasn't very happy with me. But hey, it's hard guessing how many carbs are in Indian food!

Way to go!! :)

Hey Mom Looks like you 2 were working out pretty good there!!!!!

Yay! I love it when a plan comes together! Good job! :)
