What is for breakfast?

[Pyromike]

Whatever leftovers are in the fridge. Add some black coffee and I'm good till dinner.

A bagel and you are diabetic? Wow! Is this a suicide attempt or your doctor? Do the research.

Bagels are for when my fasting sugar is lower normal or low. I take both long-lasting and quick-acting insulin in the morning and fast acting at mid-day. One bagel either AM or noon and one meal in the evening (protein, carb and fruit). Nothing but coffee otherwise. If I don't, my sugar crashes about 10AM or so and I will be compensating with glucose tabs, crackers or juice. Yesterday, I spent all morning and early afternoon at the rest area at the top of the pass handing out coffee and snacks to travelers at the rest area.

Fasting BS was 149 @ 7AM; 117 @ 9 AM. Noon insulin about 11 AM depending on BS. Better than shivering, blurred vision and cold sweats from LOW blood sugar!

^^^You really don't have to explain how you manage bloodsugars to someone that is just trying to get a 'rise' out of you. Do the research? Try being under an endocrinologist's care for more than 20 years, then tell me to do the research. There are so many generalities regarding diabetes. Almost always the people that try to give you advice have no idea what they are talking about.

Each individual is different and their care plans differ as well

So, Jackbull was trying to get a 'rise' out of you and got me instead. Enjoy your chuckle, but really, try to learn something about the subject you are accusing others of not knowing what's what.

My last A1c was 6.8= lowest in 17 years, so I MUST be doing something right! Looking forward to starting my full dosage of Ozempic in a week or so!

I'm used to Jack Bull's remarks. He doesn't bother me none. I just consider the source!

Thanks for the support, turd! (p.s. 11 AM blood sugar was 93)

2 eggs normally scrambled or boiled and coffee hotter than hell, blacker than night and as strong as a mothers love.

I'm 6 weeks into Ozempic. Breakfast depends on my sugar levels. This AM, BS was 150, so it was black coffee for breakfast. Sugar was 109 at 9:30, so I had a bagel with cream cheese and another shot of insulin.

UPDATE:
"
GREAT NEWS!!! INCREDIBLE NEWS!!!!!! FANTASTIC NEWS!!!!!!!!!

Met with my Primary Care yesterday. Got a GREAT Anniversary Present!!
After 8 weeks (today is #8 injection) of Ozempic, I go to a full dose (1 ml/wk). Staring today, I am to reduce my insulin!!! Long-acting is being reduced by 1/3rd daily and fast -acting by 2/3rds (Use ONLY after meals!). Should start seeing weight drop (Maybe a pound a week?)


Glucose is staying at a pretty steady keel so far today!!!!
