Drinking that much beer and gin-n-tonic was a big mistake!It all came down to my stomach not emptying worth a damn and that I can not consume too many liquids before going to bed. Or course, I can't eat too much grease before going to bed. So, it is a toss upAbout an hour after going to bed, I started burping up stomach juices. I'd swallow them and go back to sleep. Then, I woke up realizing that I had stomach juices coming out of my left nostril. I must have been really asleep to sleep through this. (Thank God I never sleep on my back or I could have chocked on these juices like Jim Morrison did! Howver, I was sobor and the legend what that he wasn't...)
Well, enuf is enuf so I went into the main bedroom bathroom and sternly told my stomach "Time to barf if you want to!" Naturally nothing happened so I stuck my finger down my throat several times (6?) and that brought up enuf stomach juices that I was able to feel comfortable in going back to bed.
First, I had to wath my hands so I left this bathroom and went to the hall bathroom and found my wife getting ready to come to bed. Conversation:
Her:"Are you OK?"Me: "I am now..."
Her: "Were you vomiting?"
Me: "Errr, sort of..."
Her: What do you mean, sort of? You either were or you weren't!"
Me: "Yeah, I was..."
Her: "I thought so; don't try to hide this from me."
Me: "Yes, dear..."

Dinner: I read a webpage which talked about broccoli florets being the key to "taming" one's blood sugar. So, I went to the 14th Street Dillions and bought 3 heads of broccoli. Then, I had
My morning blood sugar was 111 and my evening was only 113! I guess that shit (broccoli) works!They put a cautionary note in: "you're going to have gas like Sauda Arabia" [or words to that effect] if you increase your fiber intake. I had that gas this morning; I practically "jet propelled" myself out of bed and to the main bedroom at 4:16 am...It left me hungry so I had a half peanut butter samwhich on a slice of sour dough bread before bed with a gin-n-tonic.
Lunch: Some left over stew but not too much of the meat (it was stringy and tough) and a couple of largish potatoe chunks plus a can of DP.
Snack: I was fairly hungry so I bought a can of cheap corn beef hash, put it into a sauce pan, cracked an egg over it and cooked it over low heat until the egg was done. It was good but a couple of hours after eatting, I was afraid that I'd spoiled my dinner. My 29th Anniversary Dinner!
Dinner: We went to Mike Casey's "Casey's Cowtown" and I had
I thought about having desert - their flaming custard but I didn't becausePre-dinner "snack": a gin-n-tonic...
- I'm worried about the upcoming A1C test on 20 November 2008,
- I was afraid I'd end up getting sick from both the steak fat and the desert and
- I simply felt too stuffed!
Who would have thought I'd feel too stuffed?
So far, I have not been doing all that great...
My 2 hours post dinner5 blood sugar reading was 156...this is a bit high given that I'd had only a potatoe (and sour creamme) for the flash-to-blood gucose. Kathie thougth it was the broccoli but I checked and broccoli has a glycemic index of 15. Fifteen is in the low range!
