Blood sugar was so odd.

.

I finally gave up and ate.  Blood sugar stayed at 134?  Hmm...

While looking for an alternative sweetener, I landed upon a video that suggested there are some.  But that one, in particular, not only doesn't increase blood sugar, but blocks the receptors from other sorts of carbs.  I had the stuff, worth a shot.

And?  Part of the reason I am up so late is to give it a shot.  After consuming as much fatted coffee, laced with the stuff, as I could... then waiting two hours?  Blood sugar is 103.  Finally, after days of difficulty, even starving for two days in a row to no good end, the numbers are... back.  Allulose?  Really?  Yeah.  Here to tell you, or... more... show you.  I wouldn't have believed it.  Still not sure I do believe it.

The only bad part?  It... isn't very sweet.  And tastes... strange.  But... it is something... different?  Perhaps it would grow on me?  There are some others I will try, as well.  I just... running without anything, ever, was a bit much.  Yeah.  Maybe, in time, I can go without any sweets in my life.  But currently, that is just a bit tight.

They just came out with a new type, monkfruit allulose.  Perhaps... that might be better?  Haven't had great success, flavorwise, with monkfruit either.  Mix and match might be an improvement?  Well... blood sugar finally broke back down.  If it stays there, good.  I still won't mess with the stuff, save when I absolutely go bonkers from wanting something something like sweet, or blood sugar goes up again.

But, all I have been eating is mostly meats.  And very low carb else, for the last two days.  My body seems to be rejecting fat, and trying to grab, and hold, carbs... of any kind.  Maybe even somehow faking carbs from things, or converting protein or fat to carbs.  It's... cheating, trying to hold onto the old ways.  This is going to be difficult.

Thanksgiving dinner may have messed things up.  Worth it.  But, back to the grindstone.  I have some hope, if I eat for months, carnivore, at a time, later feasts won't be so harsh on my mellow.  But, if they are, so be it.  Worth it, both ways.

Ah, my mother called.  Informed me she had returned from her trip.  A trip she had not informed me concerning.  Not that she needs my permission.  Just, I can't know she is returning if I didn't know she went.

A very good trip.  They hit snow, getting there.  But it was gone on their return.  Her guy's son, one of them.  And the youngest son drove.  With one of his daughters also going.  Quite the adventure, across several states, in winter, for an eighty something year old, and her elder boyfriend, even as passengers.

I was just glad they got out and had a ball of it.  I hope, somehow, they are around to do it for the next ten or fifteen years.  A pleasing thing.

Looks like I lost a friend?  Or blogger is being... problematic.  I can't post on Chief Nosewetter's blog anymore.  With either of my accounts.  It just indicates I am not allowed to view the blog?  I can... view.  I just can't post though.  Not sure if he is... doing something, purging all posting.  On a binge and not happy about this or that, or anything?  Or... like I said... a tech issue.  Never can tell these days.

Well, on to bed.  I think.  Goodnight, or good morning really.  In either case, later, much later.
