Day 38

So I have been on insulin for 5 months now, and yesterday was the first day that I forgot to take it.
I normally take it around 4 in the morning (I usually don't go to bed until around 6am) however last night I layed down and had just fallen asleep when I woke up and remembered that I hadn't taken it! I thought about getting up and injecting, but then I thought "Maybe I will skip a day just to see what happens"
I don't think that is necessarily a good thing, and I am back on track now, but i just wanted to see if one day would effect my numbers.
So this morning when I had a blood sugar of 110, which is almost perfect, I was quite thrilled.
So this morning i had a bowl of cereal, followed by a couple pieces of toast and some almonds.
I knew that i had dinner plans before work so I saved most of my hunger for Sea Thai on colonial near the fashion square mall. I have been there a few times and I love it.
I started with the spring rolls and my entree was pineapple fried rice with Chicken.
I might as well have licked my plate clean, it was so good!
Then during work I had an apple, and when i got home Addison, Nicole and I had Grilled Cheese sandwiches and a salad with dried cranberries, apples, cashews and almonds.
We are all going out for brunch tomorrow, so I am anxious to see where we end up.

Day 37

Considering what I had eaten and drank the previous night, I was pleased to have a blood sugar of 121.
So Jeff and i got up and headed back to Orlando today.
On the way back we stopped at Chick-Fil-A.
Then a nap.
and then before work I had an apple and a bag of peanuts.
After work a trip to Steak and Shake where I had a BLT, a cup of Chili and 2 sausage, egg and cheese sliders.

Day 36

Blood sugar 82
Today Jeffrey and I went to Tampa to get tattooed, meet up with Daphne to go see Wicked, and have some drinks.
On the way there we stopped at Chili's where I had the honey chipotle Chicken Crispers. a delicious start to the day!
Once we arrived and checked in we bellied up to a bar and had a traditional Irish Car Bomb (The last time we went to Tampa I had 18, along with some shots of Citron ....So I feel that my alcohol consumption this trip was a lot smarter) Then after we got our Carrot Tattoos we met up with Daphne at Acropolis for some Delicious Greek Food! I had the Gyro platter, extremely Delicious and very filling. I couldn't even finish it!
Then off to see Wicked, which was excellent! and then out bar hopping!
I kept count and I only had 7 drinks for the rest of the night.
After some dancing we got a couple of slices of pizza and called it a night!

Day 35

Blood Sugar 112.
Today I started with a bowl of cereal and 2 pieces of raisin toast.
Then had a great workout with Lynn.
Afterwards I met up with Addison at the Mellow Mushroom and split a portobello mushroom appetizer, followed by a spinach salad and we got the Cosmic Karma pizza, which we ate some of there, and then the rest after the bar, along with another one of my homeade pizzas on a whole wheat pita which was topped with spinach, broccoli, onions and peppers.
Off to Tampa tomorrow, so I will try to get some good food photos!

Day 34

Blood Sugar 98
I started the day by making a cheese and tomato pizza on a whole wheat pita.
Then around lunchtime Nicole and I were driving around looking for something to eat. We found a new Mediterranean place which was excellent and I wrote a review on urbanspoon.com Here is a link so that you can read about the place.

After my delicious meal there, i went to Happy Hour, followed by a trip to Graffiti Junktion where I had a burger with bleu cheese and onions, and I ate some of my fries, but not all.
Then a night of dancing and a few cocktails!
and finally before bed I had another one of those pizzas.
I ate a lot today, but I do think that I danced most of it off!

Day 33

Again the blood sugar was 91!
I started out today with 2 pieces of whole wheat raisin toast and a fat free yogurt.
Then off to the gym, a great 30 minute workout and an additional 25 minutes on the eliptical machine. (I know that I didn't spell that correctly)
Then I met up with Addison and we went to the Cypriana Greek Restaurant in Casselberry. I have always driven by there but this was my first time actually dining there.
Delicious!
We started with the SAGANAKI $7.95
Melted Greek cheese battered & sautéed in olive oil, then flambéed & sprinkled with fresh lemon
(Did you like how I copied and pasted that from their website?)
and then for my entree I had GYRO DINNER $9.95
Seasoned gyro meat served over pita bread with lettuce, tomatoes, onions & tzatziki sauce.
(I love this game)
After I finish this I am going to write a review on urbanspoon, so I suggest that you go there next and read it.
Then a trip to Orange City for a costume fitting.
and then to La Hacienda Mexican Grill for the number 4 combo (One tostada, One Beef Enchilada, and one taco ...I couldn't cut and paste from their website)
I also had a bite of Addisons Cheesecake Burrito! however I didn't eat all of my enchilada. It was good, and when in the area I would definitely go back.

Day 32

This morning I was back at 91.
Perfect.
I started the day with a trip to Toojays with Nicole. I wanted breakfast, but it was 3pm and the server told us they were no longer doing breakfast. (However I sure was bitter when the guy at the table next to us who ordered after us got his breakfast! oh well!) anyway I ended up with the cheddar bacon hot dog platter. Doesn't it look disgustingly cheesy and greasy? However it was delicious!
Then before work I had some cashews, and at work i had an apple.
Then afterwards I ate up all my leftovers ...., salad, tortellini and pita.
Now my fridge is bare. Tomorrow will include some dining out.
Actually the next few days will, hopefully I will eat delicious food and not let my sugars go to high!
