The Froo-Froo Bits:
This was a good weekend. My logs are a bit lacking, I know. I wanted to see what would happen if I just stuck to the diet & didn't hover over my blood sugar. After all, I have a continuous glucose monitor for that. So, I took my brain off-line for Saturday & most of Sunday. It WORKED. My blood sugar stayed stable & steady right where it should be, my graph on my CGM stayed in a nice flatish line. It was a good weekend.
I'm curious what do you think your logs are lacking?

Well, its more that I didn't monitor my sugar as much as I think I should. That's really all it is. I've set some alarms on my insulin pump this morning, and those should help me stay on track on the weekends. During the work-week, my daily schedule is pretty well set. Its weekends that trip me up.
