Subject: RE: Elevated insulin



Pittsburg, Kansas
Got an insulin challenge last night at supper. The meat dish at the resort had potatoes. I ate a few. The shrimp had tempura covered. I ate that. Had a beer, first in several months. Had some fruit. One teaspoon of rice just to taste it. Good tasting meal but I knew I was over doing the carbs.

Was an experiment. Wanted to see if my pancreas beta cells could handle it. Well not really. Hour later blood sugar 217. Woa! Better not do that again. I try to keep post prandial to under 150. This morning 117 so not horrible. My usual is 115-135 which is high.

So my diabetic experiment determined I need to continue severely limit carbs if I continue to stay off insulin shots and other diabetic drugs. Kind of hard here in Indonesia, but I will do best I can.

Got to get back on target. Got scuba diving to do!
