I am going to a diabetes educator tomorrow. Weird thing is, I was having spikes in the morning, high bs levels, and I've been checking regularly and they are much better. Even though I'm also guilty of indulging in sweets at night. I don't understand. If I eat almsot nothing at bedtime my sugars are high in the morning. I'm very confused. Hopefully this educator can explain why snacking on carbs at night, including a fair bit of sugar, makes my sugar level much better in the morning.
I'm also trying to eat more often during the day and less at a time, so I think that has helped a lot.

Reading about the possibility of going blind has scared me into straightening up my bad habits of eating half a box of cookies sometimes. My aunt has diabetes and has lost a lot of her vision. I don't know why it hasn't started to scare me until now, but it is. I still need to see an optometrist, I keep forgetting. my best to you all, am thankful for this thread!
