Good morning and TGIF! ~ I hope you are able to get the physical therapy you need. I had a stressful day yesterday - that beast report from last week came back for some revisions that took a few hours. In the end it was not such a big deal, but the anxiety it caused was nuts. I noticed my blood sugar going up on an empty stomach, which was interesting. I had planned to just eat really clean and stop doing the things that spike my blood sugar, but I decided that I am going to test and see what happens when I eat carbs of any kind - more specifically, a carb with a meal or a carb snack. I think seeing it will be helpful. I'm a bit obsessed in case you couldn't tell! Today is my half day - yay - then meeting kiddo for lunch then home for the weekend. Rob is going to Vegas today to buy into a super contest for the NFL season and play in a golf tournament. He'll be home on Sunday. I plan to cook actually - the things Rob doesn't care for like eggplant, lentils and curry to stash in the freezer. I really enjoy this sort of day to myself.
QOTD - Probably where did you get that top? I wear a lot of long flowy blouses and kimono type things to work (with leggings of course). Comfort is everything to me.
Accountability - wine
b- coffee, HB eggs, avocado
l - Indian buffet - all the things - carb of choice will be naan
d -probably leftovers or eggs
Have a wonderful Friday and weekend!!
A coworker was embarrassed to show me how she packed her lunch - it was a deconstructed sandwich - she doesn't like her food to touch until she is ready to eat it. I said I totally get it - I'm that way too. We called it her psycho sandwich and had a good laugh. Then I sent her a picture of my lunch - my psycho salad, haha. I have to pack this way - i can't just throw it in a bowl and go. the things cannot touch yet!

Amy stress makes my sugar higher. It's common for me to have a 20 point higher reading at the endocrinologist's office than an hour previous at home - even if though I didn't eat anything in the interim. And that's even though I really like her.

I would never have guessed that for blood sugar but for blood pressure - yes. Makes a lot of sense though.

Oh, blood pressure too. I always come in at 150 and then the doctor has to retake it at the end of the appointment to make sure it's normal.

Good morning all and Happy Friday!
It's time for another weekend. Yay! My car is fixed and I'm picking it up this morning. I'm glad I can get it back, in time for the weekend. I have the picnic Sunday and it will be nice to see all the planning come to fruition.
QOTD - Can I have a dollar? There are unhoused people at a lot of traffic lights asking for money. A horrible story this week is that an attack on an unhoused person on a highway exit ramp near my house turned into murder. It was a turf dispute over whose territory it was to panhandle.
B: Dannon Light and Fit Cherry Yogurt, Tangerine.
L: Grilled Chicken and tomatoes.
D: Cilantro Lime Shrimp.

IKR? Stupid shelf stocking issues with the go-to Coconut yogurt brought me to resort to different flavors. Cherry and peach aren't bad but they're no coconut!
