ok seriously.
i absolutely cannot blog right now.
it is D minus 4 hours until my favorite holiday and i must prepare.
i am already watching Rocky Horror Picture Show which is absolutely priceless.
being a "borderline" diabetic, halloween has been a challenge for me.
but as usual i figured out a way around it.
I dont eat any actual real food on halloween,
that way the other food doesnt interfere with the metabolism of sugar.
Just candy for breakfast lunch and dinner.
After my coffee of course.
Years ago when my blood sugar was even worse than it is now,
Hubby went to pick children up from trick or treating in the better neighborhoods. You know the ones that give FULL size candy bars out?
And i sat with D#4 and ate an entire bowl of candy while he was gone.
Needless to say D#4 and I were both in a coma with candy wrappers strewn all over us and the couch when he returned.
and i awoke the next day with a hangover.
so in order to prepare this year...
i will eat nestle crunch bars for breakfast because they have rice krispies in them and that is the same as eating cereal
and i will eat candy corn for lunch, because corn is good for you, along with reeses peanut butter cups because there is protein in peanut butter
and then i will eat butterfingers for dinner because although butter has fat in it, fingers like chicken fingers are a decent thing to eat for dinner.
And the best news of this whole story is that I finally understand Glycolysis and in case you didnt know what that was...
glycolysis is the breakdown of a molecule of glucose
and glucose is sugar
and it breaks down to pyruvic acid and sometimes undergoes fermentation
which is just like drinking a beer
so.. think of halloween like another one of my favorite holidays
St. Patricks Day...just with the addition of glycolysis.
