i went to bed last feeling positive and hopeful. Had a healthy dinner. Did some good exercising. Seeing and feeling some results. As i laid there, i started feeling a little weird, that turned into feeling dizzy. i knew where this was going.
i lowered myself off of the sofa onto the floor and dragged myself over to the refrigerator to get piece of candy. i felt so stupid sitting there with the light of the open refrigerator door shining on me.
i ate two pieces of almond roca and then slide over to check my blood sugar. My body was beginning to shake and my head was doing a little spinning inside. i had a difficult time in the darkness and with my body shaky getting the blood from my finger onto the test strip.
Finally the little music on the meter began playing and the display read ... 98.
Had i waited, i'm not sure i would have been able to get off the sofa and over to the refrigerator on my butt.
In the past, i would sneak pieces of candy just to please my sweet tooth ... and i wouldn't stop.
As i am still learning, i want to be able to find something more healthy for me in case my blood sugar should get this low again. What i really need to do is have more fruit available.
