Awake and moving.

.

It was 18:28 when I woke.  Pretty early, considering I went to bed after 10:00, perhaps as late as noon.  I just can't remember, just that I definitely saw 10:00, and was awake at least an half hour after.  My mind was shutting down.  Those chops, and that stupid grill, kept me up far later than intended.

Testing blood sugar can rarely be good.  It is 128 fasting!  And is 155 for the weekly average.  I was worried the chops would throw it, so took a small dose with the meal.  Then was actually feeling a bit odd, so took some candies.  I kept it light, but it was, I hoped, a corrective.  It looks like I did pretty darned good.  Perhaps it would have been lower without the candies, but it might have been too low, or for me, quite yet.

It might be working better, as I am raising my slow acting.  I... we had set that up, for me to raise it, from the start.  But I had forgotten, that bit had gotten lost in falling off some or all medicine, summer heat, and other problems.  This last consultation with my doctor, he reminded me of that medical advice.  And, with everything going so well, it was done... or is being done, implemented.  I am up to 35 cc's.  

Going up slower.  It might even end up being sufficient, by itself, at a lower dose?  Maybe.  Maybe.  If I can keep on a low carb diet.  Then again... I keep hoping, in time, as I get better at keto, then intermittent fasting, perhaps I can reduce then eliminate insulin altogether.  It has happened, not sure it is possible again, these days.  But, maybe.  Weight loss would be a part of it, which is as much of the problem as anything else.  I ought to get back to that food app.  It really was helping.  Well, and I need to get back into kefir.  That stuff is a golden addition to my diet, in a dozen ways.

You can't just change numbers that have been of one's body for decades, quickly.  The body, itself, rejects lower blood sugar and lower bp.  It just doesn't like "new" things.  I am almost getting better at this.  My body is starting to get used to a lower bp and blood sugar, and eating less and better.  My metabolism is absolutely shot, I doubt if I even can lose weight.  But, who knows.

On the good side, of staying up way late, is that I was able to take my "night" medicine.  Today I am going to take 'morning' medicine right aw... done!  Sometimes I write, with intent, but nothing gets done.  Even taking medicines.  I have to do it right now or I will get lost in fog and it won't be done.

Water is heating, for breakfast.  I really need to start back with eggs.  I absolutely love eggs.  Perhaps boiling a dozen, for the week?  An easy way to prepare them.  Then, begin dishes and cleaning the kitchen so that I an fry some eggs, from time to time.  And, an excellent keto food.

Well... time to begin getting breakfast going.  Cleaning and clearing litter while at it.  I am wearing a fleece jacket today.  If you have to, just do it.  I need more warmth, or nothing will get done.  One more layer, I am hoping.  I keep the place at 70, bump it to 74 if I think it will help.  Lately, even that hasn't been helping.

Oh, a shower, too, after breakfast.  Yes.  Then chores, what is left of trash out, and recycling gathered and out.  I have to set goals.  I have to try.  Even if I fail, I am going to set up for, plan for, success.  I don't care if I fail every day but one in one hundred, or one thousand.  I will plan to win, to do, to work, every day possible.  Is today the day?  Let's find out.  Good morning, evening, and day, innit.
