Thanksgiving Day Levels

Well, the festivities are over, the food is packed away, and I'm worn out. The day started with my level being 120. Once my feet hit the ground, that was it. I was on my feet for 10 hours cooking and cleaning. Only once did my levels go high. My fault completely. My DD made some homemade rolls, so I *had* to try some. YUM. So, that meant my level went to 256. I immediately took 4 units.

After a few hours, I knew the Afrezza would be out of my system, and it was time to eat. We had a feast for sure. I was very careful, because I was scared I'd go really high today. To my surprise, the highest it went was 166.

How'd I do it? Well, this was literally exactly what I ate.

3oz turkey and gravy
2 teas mashed potatoes
2 teas stuffing
2 teas sweet potato casserole
1 deviled egg
2 teas crab salad
1 teas barley casserole
3 teas green beans

After that, it was time for desserts. My son-in-law is one of the best bakers-EVER, well except for cheesecake. My daughter, his wife, would have to *take the cake* on that one. Anyway, he made pumpkin pie and pecan pie. My oldest daughter, his wife, made double layer pumpkin cheesecake. My youngest daughter made a pumpkin roll. It was not good for this diabetic. I wanted it all.

My son-in-law got a piece of each type of pie/cake. My daughter and I decided to make it community pieces. We were all full, so no one wanted their own piece. I had the tiniest, I mean tiniest, bite ever of each one. I did not have a full bite of any dessert. My taste buds were happy and so was my level.

I haven't had levels this great since becoming a diabetic. I'm so happy!!!!!!
