Trying Paleo

This is our fourth day on the paleo diet. Frankly, I will try anything at this point to keep her bg more stable, especially in the morning. The first two days were great! She loves omelett, so this was not a tough sell for breakfast. I blended the eggs with spinach and added some cubed bell pepper, it was quite nice.

After that I got more adventurous and we tried chia pudding (almond milk, honey) with banana for breakfast, resulting in 57 carbs, and that was when her bg started to spike again, followed by a low. In the evening she was low again during dinner. And today her dex peeped in the evening again to signal she was low. I hate lows during the night. It is scary to think what might happen if we miss one. And she is not always happy to be woken up. Just now it took her a long time to come to and eat some non-paleo starburst and salt sticks with juice.

I feel down. Going paleo would have been too easy a solution, eh? Hopping the worry wheel, and I don't even want to think about starting a new school and work week tomorrow. It is so hard to try to take good care of her and go to work despite all this. We need the money. I wish I had a solution.
