I would be thrilled with those numbers, the ones when you were not in compliance. Every now and then even my FASTING blood sugar in the morning will be 157. Two of my docs are "happy" with my control because I keep my A1C's below 7.0

I am not happy because I have huge swings that average out to a fair A1C. I get very frustrated that no matter how hard I try to control my BS, it seems to have a mind of its own. There are times it appears there is no rhyme or reason to the resulting numbers.

Maybe I should start putting vinegar on everything I eat. (Smile)

Oh, to have something different for a change, I ate some sauerkraut one evening and had a resulting blood sugar of 306. Guess it did not have enough vinegar but sure tasted like it. That was all I ate. Just one small helping of warmed sauerkraut from a small glass jar.
