Snack!

.
.
While another full meal seemed too much, a snack seemed possible.  Another blood check, to see if blood sugar had continued to rise.  Nope, down to 124.  An eight ounce (liquid) container of unshelled salted peanuts.  It handled hunger well enough.  An hour and change later, and blood sugar is up to 128.  Not a bad rise.  Still hungry, just not painfully so.  I will need to experiment with various snack items.  Home popped popcorn is good, and pretty much all I can eat, from what I have seen so far, salted and buttered.  Herbed and buttered probably then as well.

I'm not up to going to town.  Still a bit green about the gills.  Premeal blood sugar is now averaging 136 for the week.  I... just don't think my body is used to that, or the lower bp and pulse.  Actually, that I am on meds, and the weather cooled with no sun for the last few days?  I'm doing well to be able to stay awake and on meds.  I am doing very well for having every major negative active.

I have another change.  I will be aiming to take night medicines earlier, say around 18:00.  I am curious to see if this will have a readable reduction in blood pressure before going to bed.  Perhaps that will shift things down before sleep, improving things.  At this point, while I can check so regularly, I might as well experiment.  Optimizing systems, programs, techniques, when raw data and processing power is available improves function when forced to coast.

Weight, again, was 255.  If I can keep blood sugar down, and continue to work, especially adding swimming, I... think losing serious weight won't be a problem.  Then again I have lost thirty and gained some muscle.  I just can't push too hard until I lose more.  But I can do some.  Yeah.

Good night.
