This is what Joy recommends that I have for my two meals for breakfast and lunch. I have to say I still have a snack to go and then dinner of course I am drinking my water. So I will see how my sugars are. if they are dropping I can also cut down on insulin use at night. So today is a new day for me and I am happy as can be about this.

I was also ask to write down what I am eating to keep a record, so this is my record. Will I do this everyday in my blog no I will start to do a journal just for me, once in a while I will do it on my blog.
So have a great day and lets keep it safe out there



This pudding sounds darn tasty...and a good way to up my calcium intake. I have a couple of Joy's cookbooks...good luck with following her plan. Fingers crossed that you can reduce your insulin~
