Oh well...never mind i guess it means i am human after all..

just had a bowl of cereals and 8 squares of dark chocolate....very naughty and a 1 off...but i have to admitt, it was worth it

i hope we all do this at times, and not just me?!!! please say its not just me??

i guess when i test later my sugar will be high and i might feel sluggish in the morning , but i have felt rubbish anyway with the detox effect from all the food changes,

back on tomorrow though

Its not just you dont worry 🙂 we all have to indulge at some point after all we are only human!

I myself have just had half a tub of ben and jerrys.....i only planned on having a quarter of it as thats what i bolused for after dinner and can feel myself going high! but like i said we are only human and if we dont indulge in what we really want then we end up binging on it at some point anyway....i think a little bit of what we fancy does no harm just in moderation 🙂
 
thanx D-G
how do you know if your going high? what are the symptoms?

i actually feel more chilled out since i binged....a bit like a drug addict having their fix!!
i might pay for it in the morning though

It certainly is! We all indulge from time to time - I got a taste for white chocolate last night! The main thing to do is make sure that such occasions are treats, not regular occurences - the odd above normal level isn't going to harm you and it can do wonders for your state of mind 🙂 Your 10.4 is a good result after your lapse!
 
They've got strawberry tarts next door today! I'm am so-o-o-o-o tempted. I may succumb if my numbers aren't too bad come lunchtime.
 
thanx Northerner and Alison

very true northerner, it was a 1 off i need to shift the weight, just had some blueberrys in my porridge to try...yuk i wont try blueberries again🙄
but i will add i got my lowest reading this morning before breakfast at 6.0!!

how can some disbetics have a really low reading in the morning before food?!!
will i ever get reading that low?!! or is it the way my diabetes is?

Alison ....how cruel to have strawberry tarts so close!!
i adore them, i dont think i could cope knowing they are soooo close :D

so sorry for my crappy typing too...on each post i think theres a spelling mistakes!!!

xx
 
I've managed to get in and out of the shop for my lunch without giving in to temptation and am feeling really pleased with myself. Don't worry about the spelling, I type in double dutch and then translate. It's a wonder my posts make any sense at all.

Congratulations on the waking BG, mine are almost never that low.
 
I gave in to my craving for jam donuts i downed 2 1/2 not good but to be fare these where the first in about 8 years:D
