I didn't think it possible.

Sure, fasting blood sugar was very good, at 154, this morning.  But I doubted it could go down much.  I had the remaining steak, from the two pack of thincut steaks.  As well, coffee, a kefir, and a vinegar tonic.  That was it.  Haven't been able to have a bm, so... meh.  Anyway, I decided to check here before bedtime.

It was lower.  It is 137, a seventeen point drop?  Crazy.  All this time, the elevation was the keto sweetener.  I have been doing without it.  It is difficult.  A few drops in the coffee, or kefir, or both, make both so much smoother.  But, no.  I'm going old school.  I am adding cream to my coffee, but even then, only a dollop, a teaspoon, two on rare occasions.  I wish I could find a sweetener that made it taste better, and didn't cause one problem or another.  I have tried just about everything out there.  This was as good as it got.  Yes, I tried the alcohols too.  (Not drinking alcohol, some sort of sweetener.)

That is the lowest blood sugar read I have had since I was on insulin, and just for a while.  It wouldn't stay low.  Either I would eat something, or go through a phase where I had to eat whatever was on hand, couldn't focus.  And that has been several years back.  Interesting.  I'll keep at it.  Ketavore seems to be working.  Now, when I rarely cheat with a veggie, it isn't like when I cheat with pizza.

And, I have cut my calorie count.  A lot.  Not every day.  But often I only eat a meal, or two, and just small amounts of meat.  I'd like to go on to bed, but I think I will roast ribs, and chicken gizzards, yet tonight.  The ribs may be sliced off, in twos or three, and grilled to heat.  The gizzards?  I may just eat those, perhaps griddling them to a finish.  With mushrooms?  Sure.  It's a bit late, but I am hungry.
