Thanksgiving dinner with GD Success!

I just tested my sugars after eating Thanksgiving dinner and they're 113!

I even let myself have some mashed potatoes, stuffing and a small piece of pie! Hooray!

    I wish I was as successful as you guys. My number was 150 after a hour after eating. Oh well! The stuffing was so good.

    I was exactly 120, so I'll take it.  I had a little stuffing and a small amount of sweet potatoes with my turkey and asparagus.  No pie for me, but I did have an ice cream sandwich before bed.  Yum!

    I did well also! I had a very small scoop of a few fave sides and lots of turkey.  I even made pumpkin pie as my snack and wound up at 100 - 2 hours after eating.  Slightly higher than the 90 that my endocrinologist would like but he won't even blink at 100.

    I got a 121... and that was with small scoops of just about every side, although I did make sure I took TONS of turkey and broccoli.  The other sides (the higher carb choices- stuffing, sweet potato pie, etc) were yummy too, but I made sure I only had a few bites of those.  I was thrilled!

    BTW my biggest worry was not being able to have cranberry sauce - my absolute FAVORITE!!!! - so I made my own with fresh cranberries, water and Splenda.  OMG was it good!!!  DH even preferred mine to the canned stuff that he normally eats.  In any case, I have a feeling I shall be making homemade cranberry sauce every year now!

    I did make these low carb pumpkin oatmeal muffins that were pretty good although there was a fiasco with them sticking to the liners lolol- which is why I totally do not bake!) so I ate one of those, and then took small bites of some of the other desserts.

    I did not fare so well.  After I ate, I had to go lay down because I felt so sick.  Between the food that I hadn't eaten in so long and DS kicking my stomach all around, I was not feeling well at all.

    My diabetic cheesecake was a complete waste!  It was gross.  Beyond gross.  I probably overdid it because after eating a few bites of it, I broke down and had some real pie.

    Oh well . . . one day isn't going to hurt us.  I was back on track with breakfast the next day.  My fasting that morning was right on target.

    Oh! Wicket, I'm sorry yours wasn't as successful.  I know you have such a rough time of it and your doctor has you on such a strict diet.  That so sucks that your cheesecake was gross!

    Keep your chin up girl! Glad that your fasting is back on target!
