Morning Blood Sugar: 97. Very interesting. I checked last night and before bed I was 93. So at least it's reading different at other times. I'm wondering if the weight I dropped while sick has helped to reset my system a bit. I really am surprised that I've been consistently below 100. The good news is that sugars level out and then the fat release begins. Yay! I've been thinking that it might be the grapefruit. It has sugar lowering tendancies. Either way I'll take it!

"Every time you start to eat, check your hunger level. Ideally, aim for around a level of 3 to begin eating. If you are at a 5 or above, you are not biologically hungry. If you are at 2 or lower, you're likely over hungry and at risk for overeating." Scale and comments taken from the book "Intuitive Eating" by Evelyn Tribole and Elyse Resch.
