Low Blood Sugar?
Debi,
Regarding your post, Dr. P told me at my two year check up in October that we need more protein on a schedule throughout the day to keep our blood sugars level. She told me to eat a handful of almonds or such a thing when this occurs, but she stressed 6 small meals throughout the day is something we should be doing, our bodies do not work the way they used to. I keep protein in my purse or car at all times (the bars, 100 calorie pack of almonds are very portable), so if I am on the go I can grab something healthy. I have found since adhereing to what I was told, I suffer less bouts of what you described. If I do too much carbs without benefit of protein, that usually sends my sugar downhill, so we live and learn. . .
You look fabulous, good luck in school.
Hugs, Laureen

My Mantra is that I do not determine my success by the number hanging in my closet, nor will I let the scale determine that success either. . . It is through trial and error I will continue to grow and succeed. . . Laureen

Thanks for all the suggestions everyone!!!
I need to really refocus and chart my food and start testing my blood sugar again.
I was truly thinking I was dumping on sugar from the fruit I had been eating.
But I think it is low blood sugar...
Sandra, I will definitely stop by sometime this week or next week.
