Lunch: Arby's: Nine oz sirloin steak, garlic mashed potatoes, mixed veggies (brocolli flowers and carrots) with glasses of "Diet Pepsi".
Post Blood Drive: Bowl of potatoe soup with two little bags of crackers (4 saltine crackers), a brownie, cup of coffee and glass of water.
Dinner: About a cup of cooked rice and a piece of meatloaf (about the size of a playing card and about 1.5 inches thick) and a glass of water.
We were going to the hair dresser to get me a haircut and Kathie a hair do - hair cut actually and I had to "test my blood sugar" 2 hours after eatting and still go to bed about 7:30 pm. I had to finish "dinner" before 5 pm and was still full from lunch and the snack at the blood drive. I couldn't face the "Healthy Choice meal (it would have been too much!) I'd picked out and will take that for breakfast tomorrow morning.
We made it.
When I took my blood sugar reading at 7 pm, I was shocked to find my blood sugar reading was 162.
162!
I guess the food I'd eatten after the blood drive and this "dinner" had really done a number on the blood sugar...
