I decided to take a break from jagging my fingers. Don't panic.. I was told to check my glucose a couple times a week or up to every other day. So I am still following the doctor's direction.
My diet is improving. I'm so proud of myself. The cravings have really settled.
This morning we had 2 scrambled eggs, a small strip of bacon, and 2 small pancakes with Sugar free syrup. It held me till lunch when I made us each a small bowl of cream of mushroom soup. I don't use milk in it, just hot water and extra mushrooms of course. With that we each had a grilled cheese sandwich- one slice of american cheese and one slice of provolone.. Oh.. delicious!
Not sure about tonite.. but I will be having fresh steamed broccoli with whatever the choice is.
Here's something I found on the internet for combatting abdominal bloating;
Which foods are the best at reducing visible bloat in the belly?
"Definitely reduce fried, saturated fats and increase fat-burning foods like green cruciferous vegetables. In terms of what you should be eating, consume three to four servings of vegetables a day, increase lean protein intake with free-range meats, incorporate high-fiber foods like apples or berries, and make sure you eat the right kinds of fats like avocados and nuts."
I love fresh sweet onions and broccoli.. as well as brussels sprouts..
I shouldn't have a problem with this. When I scramble the eggs, I use PAM, and if I have to use oil, it's always Olive oil. I could drink olive oil, but I think I'd be sick if I tried it.
Time for a cup of coffee..
------------------------------
As things ended up, we had tuna salad again with macaroni. I was careful to take only a cup of the macaroni, but loaded my bowl with fresh celery and onion, tuna fish, and then a dollop of Mayo for it all. Yummy and very satisfying. No snack needed tonite.
