Restaurant Dilemna

Tonight at dinner, we went to a Chinese Restaurant, and they took our drink order…..”diet coke with lime please!” And then they bring out those crunchy noodles…with the sweet and sour sauce? You know, those.THOSE! …..

I couldn’t help but notice the diabetic friendly soda drink that i had just ordered was right next the oh so sweet sauce that is not in my best interest. I tried it, ate one noodle with the sauce on it, just a little taste was just enough.

Diet Coke or Something with lots of Sugar (and Carbs)?
hmmm……
the diet coke was soo much better!

P.S. and Reminder:
We all get to set our clocks back tonight!
(you have no idea how happy that makes me!)
And in some cases….set our pumps, testers, and the tester i leave in my car… :] yay

I can never remember how set my Freestyle Flash meter…I don’t do that enough. hehe.

Thanks for the reminder, Mollie. As usual, I changed all the clocks in the house, but forgot to do my pump.

Chinese food (American style and much here in Taiwan, too) is difficult food. Hope you made it through without skyrocketing glucose levels. I hit a 366 the other day after Chinese food! Ack!

I LOVE diet coke & pretty much live on it. I have a diet coke with me at all times. It keeps me full so I don’t snack too much & it just tastes good. I would choose it over about anything. I would have done the same thing you did - chosen the diet coke.

lol I never remember to change back my sugar testers ! I don’t think I ever changed it back in the spring though, so it’s good now. I went out for chinese food last night too, unfortunately I didn’t have your self control in staying away from the sweet and sour sauce!!
