Time to get back into full healthy eating mode. Yay. A1C came out as an 8, but I’ve been eating a lot of unhealthy foods and not exercising. Insulin settings have been tweaked and altered. Hopefully it all comes together, again. 🤞
Don't beat yourself up. Being stuck at home in a pandemic has cut all our exercise, along with everything else. I started using the Tslim last December (after 37 years of needles, lol_. I love it, and my A1C dropped because of it, and that was with weeks of setting it up and tweaking anyways! The way I look at it is strive for something in the 7;s, and be happy, instead of going for a low 6 or high 5 and eating nothing but grass clippings.
I think stress has contributed a lot to my numbers/levels. I haven’t been able to stay at home or quarantine because of work and it’s been hard. And a lot of sleepless nights. I’m trying to be better though. But coworkers homemade Bosnian food is hard to say no to at work, and the carb count is nonexistent. And working hours are always changing. I’m looking into the Tslim a lot now after my appointment.
Remember to increase fats when sharply reducing carbs so you'll feel full. Fathead pizza crust is easy to make and you most likely won't taste any difference from white flour crust. Check out spaghetti squash to replace pasta or be lazy like me and make "Italian chili" which is just a thick meaty sauce without any pasta at all.
