Tonight I went to a Christmas party, with an open bar and a buffet. I didn't drink anything but water, and I only ate things from the veggie trays and the turkey meat table. I also had some salad. It was hard at the end of the night not to sample the dessert trays, and drink hot cocoa, but I did it.
I also had a call from my doctor today to tell me that my a1c score was 13, which is absolutely horrible and life threatening. Basically my glucose has averaged around 350 for the past 120 days. I should be dead by now. But thankfully I'm not, so hopefully this diet change will help things. I have an appointment first thing Monday morning to talk to him about medication and other things to get my blood sugar down.
Tomorrow I plan to make spaghetti sauce and beef stock all day, in preparation for having some easy to make meals for the next few weeks.
