Thanksgiving

Well, today is Thanksgiving for all my fellow Canadians and it was a pretty good blood sugar day for me. I had 118 grams of carbs total but that is pretty good considering it was Thanksgiving dinner, and it also included treating a low. I was mostly low this morning, except for one high after breakfast that was probably some sort of rebound effect, so I lowered all my basal rates and I:C ratio and ISF again. Hopefully I have it set correctly now. It's crazy how my insulin dose goes up or down by close to 10u every two weeks. That is a quarter of my entire TDD.

Anyway, here are my blood sugars and food and insulin. I am going to try and keep some detailed records over the next few weeks and see if I can't get this low carb thing working eventually.

Happy Thanksgiving Jen!

Thanks!! Happy Thanksgiving to you, too!

Happy Thanksgiving! I made Coq Au Vin for dinner. I know it isn’t exactly traditional, but at least it is french and involves wine!
