Holy Cow! Kraft Mac & Cheese is trying to kill me.

I got home late last night, and the men in my life (boyfriend and son) had tacos last night.  Not exactly something I want to reheat and eat at 10:30. 

So... I throw on a pot of water and make a quick box of the mac.  I know it's awful stuff, but I could live on it if I needed to.  I practically did when I was a latch-key kid growing up.  Besides, it's cheap, easy and quick. 

My blood sugar wasn't that bad during the evening hours.  It never is.  It was about 114 at 8:30 p.m.

I took my blood sugar 2 hours after I ate, about 12:45... 

180!!! That's the highest I've ever seen on me.  Maybe it's been that high during the night before and I never knew, but yikes!

What the hell??  

My little munchkin was squirming and dancing around so much.  I was asleep and had woken up to pee at 12:45 so that's why I remembered to check it.   I don't know if she moves around that much all the time and I sleep through it, but geez... she was wired!!

So I think Kraft Mac and Cheese is going on the "not while pregnant" list.

I'll miss you...

    Oh, man...it's dangerous stuff!!  I hadn't had it in years, like, 10 or more (my mother is not a good cook and this was something she could cook lol).  There was a pack of 4 on sale and I had to have it...I don't know if it's actually tasty or just nostalgic but I took down the whole box...no wonder the Dr called the LO a chunky monkey.

    LOL.  I didn't eat it for years either, but since I'm been on this stupid evening shift, it's been a quick meal on far too many nights. 

    I prefer Kraft Deluxe or homemade baked mac, but my son loves it.  So we always have a few boxes on hand.

    Cheap noodles and powdered "cheese".  :-)  Toxic, yet just yummy enough to make it passable.

    During my first trimester I was really wanting this stuff so I gave in and bought a box and it tasted horrible. I couldnt believe I wanted it so much remembering back as a kid when it was good. I dunno I just couldnt even stomach it.

     Now ramen noodles on the other hand... delish! lol
