Rough Day

So, for the good news: Yes, I finally - FINALLY! - got below 490. 489 is not a bad number when one has struggled to get there for two months. My blood sugar was 174 - which is down from last Monday, also a good deal.

But, as soon as I won one, I lost one.

I had a long and emotionally charged conversation with my wife. It wasn't a "fight" - she and I are confrontation-phobes so we don't "fight." But, it was none the less difficult. After that, my diet just didn't matter. It was also after 1PM and I hadn't eaten yet so I was ready to eat anything.

I'm not going to detail the embarrassing amount of food I tried to shove into myself to make me feel better. It was a lot of food. So much food I wasn't hungry for dinner.

I can't imagine what my blood sugar looks like now.

OMG, speak of the devil! (Sort of)
I just got done being cranky and so I managed to binge on chips and dip and now I feel crappy!

Oh well--if you get back up, I will :)

Isn't it amazing how much our emotions play into our health!? I wish it didn't matter, but it does. Here's hoping you were able to get back with it after just one day off. The bummer is now you have to get back into ketosis again. :( You can do it though!
