Morning blood sugar: Good
Today was … interesting. I got up around 7, checked my blood sugar and got on the scale, and then went back to bed for a bit just because I could. I got up again just after 9 AM with the intention of making breakfast for us. I went to wash my hands, and that’s when I realized we had no water in the apartment. No water when you are cooking, and need to wash hands and other things is a bit of a challenge. We were hungry, and after contacting our building manager we learned that the water wouldn’t be back on until 3 PM. So, we ended up ordering in for breakfast from Denny’s.
As far as places go, Denny’s isn’t too bad. They have a lot of different egg choices, and you can really customize things. I made a bit of a mistake though. We both ordered eggs, bacon, and sausage. Bruce ordered a ham slice, and I, thinking I was going to be good, ordered a cup of fruit. The last time the fruit was strawberries, pineapple, and bananas. I figured I’d probably get the same thing. Unfortunately, that didn’t happen. I got the bananas, grapes, apple slices, and some kind of melon. First of all, I can’t stand melon! I can handle water melon every once in a while, but don’t like cantaloupe and other stuff like that. So, scrap that. I ate the bananas, grapes, and apples, and they were fabulous. But, a couple hours after eating, my blood sugar was up. It wasn’t horribly up, but it was definitely above the average that I’ve been experiencing lately. So, after the fact, I checked, and it turns out that bananas, grapes, and apples are not approved for the keto plan. Very sad, but still really tasty.
We ended up having a talk with Lisa, our friendly neighborhood dietician this afternoon. We’d wanted to run a few things by her, and she had an opening, so we took it. She was able to talk with us about things we’re doing, and just to check in. We’ll speak with her next at the end of October.
In other news, I’m still having good and bad days with my energy levels. Yesterday definitely wasn’t a good day. Today, while better, was still rough. I’m chalking it up to keto flu, which should hopefully go away soon.
And, speaking of being tired, I’m done for the day.
