Breakfast: Cold oatmeal, 2% milk, Splenda "dark sugar", coffee and a can of D.P.
Lunch: At a Bar-b-que place in Wichita Kansas:
- pulled pork,
- pulled beef,
- potatoe salad (looked like semi-mashed potatoes,
- cole slau and
- a medium "Diet Coke
Snack:At this seminar I was at
Dinner: We went to a dinner on the way back from Wichita to Dodge City and I had breakfast:
- 5 oz "steak",
- two fried eggs (sort of "over medium" as I'd asked for
- hash browns
- two slices of whole wheat toast with grape jelly
- bottle of Diet Pepsi
I checked my blood sugar two hours after finishing dinner. The score was quite nice and I celebrated with a gin-n-tonic
Big Mistakes!About and hour and a half after going to bed, I awoke coughing and hacking up lots of crap. I tried going back to sleep but woke up with more crap coming up. So, tired of my wife giving me grief about coughing ("I have a pillow with your name on it! It keeps trying to get on your face! I can't keep it down much longer!), I decided to give her a show:
I went to the bathroom, raised the toilet lid and just leaned over. The vomit gushed forth and after a couple of minutes of "sprewing", I went back to bed.
She was concerned about me now, now that she realized I simply wasn't coughing to annoy her and she was still a bit worried when I got up hours later to "go taka pee". (Diabetics often have the "pee in the night" to deal with.)
Oh well, I just hope she never has these problems! On the other hand, I'm glad I'll never have to deal with fears of breast cancer or pap smears or such on a personal basis...
