Merry Christmas to all my tudiabetes friends. Curious to see what kind of BG's we will have after our big holiday meal today.

I didn't start out very well this morning with a bg of 146. Hope I improve as the day goes on.

I was 60 when I woke up and administered a cake ball and a glass of milk, then was 55 a bit later. Boozed it up last night, perhaps substantiating my theory about impairing dawn phenomenon. Put presents together, now MrsAcidRock and junior are doing karaoke w/ new toy while I yutz around w/ the Nook....

LOL...ran up to 166 post cake ball, glass of milk and perhaps 6 skittles, thinking I was running low maybe whatever going on. Oh well. CGM a bit laggy, bolused for 45G of carbs, and turned pump up to 200% basal "just in case" I ate another cake ball. Instead, I had omlette (ham, chives, cheese) and small bowl of Lucky Charms, maybe ought to have had a bit bigger bowl as I ran down to 46 after that, but making potatoes now which will have plenty of carbs. I'd like to get a run in as it's really nice out!

I am speaking from experience with many a "booze" filled night. It DOES lower your BG every morning. Be careful!!

Woke up at 4am at 46. Ate a homemade Cinnamon roll went back to bed and woke up at 125. Unfortunately I didn't get to really appreciate how good it was since I woofed it down in about 30 seconds. It was my first and probably last roll this year for me:(.

After a huge tidy up before The Day I have mislaid my meter, so have no idea. About to go on a Big Game Hunt to find it.

So far pretty bad but I won't get into details.

Before dinner I was at 81 then 2 hours after dinner @ 87. Had red velvet cheese cake for desert. Yum Yum

Started the day at 156 and did a correction (slightly naughty the previous evening). When the eating began in earnest I was at 71. Sneaked a piece of fudge while Mrs Stemwinder wasn't looking. I was 177 after 2hrs. I just made my second correction of the day and not doing to bad but who knows the day's not over. :-)

I woke up at 3.4 (61 mg/dl) and ate some Skittles. An hour later was 8.5 (153 mg/dl) so bolused for breakfast (really brunch) which was a piece of toast and eggs and sausage and coffee. About an hour after breakfast broke down and had some chocolate! Two hours after breakfast am at 10.6 (191 mg/dl) so corrected that. But really it's only an hour after the chocolate so that's probably why I'm high. Haven't had lunch yet or the big dinner, so we will see what happens ...

Well the rest of my day has been 9.5 (171 mg/dl) after lunch, 10.1 (182 mg/dl) before dinner, and 15.1 (272 mg/dl) after dinner. Not the best day by a long shot but hopefully tomorrow will be better!

And my before bed BG is still up at 14.6 (263 mg/dl), so I will correct that and see what the morning holds ...

Started at 125, but after a Christmas-breakfast with lots of carbs I was 245, so I went for a 2-mile run and after that my bg was 150. Before dinner I was 110 and after dinner I even had a low at 60. I'm quite pleased with my readings, since it's christmas-day..
