Been reading about it and finally just took the plunge. Questions on bg levels.
My fasted level this am was 69. I ate 100 carbs for breakfast. No more carbs. Fast fwd to 6pm. Home from work and check bg, it's 67. I eat 50g protein and 35 carbs (bread). Check bg it's 127. I take 3iu of r.
Go to the gym. Start working out. At 7, I check and bg is 71. I start sipping on my 25g karbolic and start feeling good! Pumps are through the roof. Feeling great. I finish at 8 and check bg. Now it's 76. Just to make sure, I eat a small snack size Hershey bar. 8:15 I get home and bg is 86. Slam my 50g protein and 25g carbs from oats.
Feeling good and so far so good. I believe next time I need to have more carbs before I pin my slin.
Reading on pro m about guys taking 2-3 iu's with no carbs, I said can't be that bad. Wrong. I learned a lot.
My question is, how we're my bg levels? You can read all you want but stuff is different when you step out and do it on your own.
