- fruit-free "blended salad" of 1/2 cup almond milk, 1 tbsp ground flaxseed, 8 oz spring mix (yeah, not the tastiest concoction)
- 3/4 cup chickpeas
- small dried tomato
- really big (~18oz) yam
- 1/2 cup? brown rice
Did 100 body-weight squats and 100 toe-raises a few minutes after eating.
BG at 0:45 - 94
at 1:20 - 90
Granted, these readings are not typical; I'm usually seeing peaks in the 130s.
I've been ravenous between meals -- probably because I'm just not eating enough, since I lost 1/2 lb yesterday. I'm still paranoid of the BG spikes. I'd appreciate any suggestions on number/timing of meals.
