After fasting for most of the day, I had a light snack of mixed nuts mid afternoon and then a light dinner of a spinach Indian dish called Palak Paneer. With 5 units of Humalog, my levels dropped lower than their standard 120. Perhaps it was too much insulin? But after it wore off, the numbers climbed back up into the 120’s and stayed steady throughout the night until breakfast the next day.

Another steady low-carb day.

I decided to keep the low-insulin experiment going. Though my numbers had climbed after breakfast, I decided to see if I could walk off the blood sugar. It turns out that I could with an hour’s walk on the treadmill as I did computer work.

A walk on the treadmill brings my numbers back down into range.
