Here I go, just got installed a Macho Libre glucose sensor, started out after a night of sweets with the sweet and my sour dough toast bread in the morning.

Woke up to a 324 fasting glucose, Yes I know Not Good, but here is  the advantage to being able to test any time, any where and as many times as you want.

So it took a day to get down into the 200s, so on the second day I went back to my diet that got my A1C down from 11.8  to 6.7  Great diet if you name is snowball have a  twichy nose and just hope about all day, but for a Man ?

On the bunny diet I run 178 to 140 all day with only just after eating peeking just above 160, Great!

I find out Menudo is great for my sugar !  Grape fruit is a short rise and back under 160 .   I love being able to test foods and combinations of foods.

Like this morning I know Sour dough is a real no no, but i thought sour dough toast a couple eggs and ham Might work Better,  NOPE sour dough will have to go away, (so sad)  the cool thing is Real time testing of foods ! I can kick the Rabbit crap to the curb and eat foods I like and they like me.

Long story short, 3 days in my sugar has been pretty constant 160 and below, (my goal), I have lost a couple of pounds without thinking about losing a couple pounds.  This Libre Glucose sensor is going to change my life ! I would say next to quitting smoking this is the best thing I have done for my self and my health.  and it is covered by my insurance

About us

QuitTrain®, a quit smoking support community, was created by former smokers who have a deep desire to help people quit smoking and to help keep those quits intact.  This place should be a safe haven to escape the daily grind and focus on protecting our quits.  We don't believe that there is a "one size fits all" approach when it comes to quitting smoking.  Each of us has our own unique set of circumstances which contributes to how we go about quitting and more importantly, how we keep our quits.
