NOTE: Started the day today testing my fasting blood sugar levels, but it was a little later than normal. Although I've been off the MYSTERY FOOD for several days now, it still rang in at 92. Yes, that's still a decent starting number, but it has been regularly in the lower 80s most of the time. We can't blame it on the MYSTERY FOOD because it hasn't been in my diet since earlier this week. Are there non-dietary reasons why fasting blood glucose levels would be elevated like that? Those of you who are diabetic or have knowledge with blood sugars feel free to chime in.
Had some raw chia seeds with my eggs again today. When you soak them in water they expand and create this gel-like substance that mixes well with eggs. And there's really no taste to them, but you get all of those healthy omega-3s into your body...GOTTA LOVE THAT! Well, I do love that and encourage you to find ways to add more good fats to your healthy low-carb lifestyle.

It might just be your normal range right now, Jimmy. My fasting blood sugars are *usually* in the mid 70's, but they range from the mid-upper 60's to the mid 80's, and it is not at all uncommon to see several days in a row in the upper end or the lower end of the range. I don't really have any clue what makes it jump around, being sick certainly affects it, how much sleep I get, maybe even what temperature the room is at night.
