It was so very good.
I expected my blood sugar to shoot up past 200 (as it has been known to do too regularly), but at one hour later I was at 119, and two hours I was at 133. That might reinforce some bad habits.
For the most part, I've done a pretty good job of adjusting my diet and eating habits to try and combat my high blood sugar. The other day, Janelle made the family mashed cauliflower. While it's not a perfect substitute for the blood-sugar-raising mashed potatoes that I love, it was certainly a more palatable side dish than I expected.
I've also largely been able to control cravings, often with the help of the bulk-food bag of unsalted peanuts. Still, incidents like today's infamous ice cream splurge show me that I don't always have the self-control that I would like over my desires and actions.
It's not that I plan on giving up on the foods that I love entirely; I just need to be better about saving them for special occasions (while not making up new special occasions) instead of semi-wild binges.
