Two days ago, after lunch, colleague suddenly told me that I look pale, but I felt usual and no symptoms. So, I was curious bout having hypoglycemia but I had a large amount lunch, a treat from colleague, high carb big big amount of rice with vegetables. To my surprise, 3 hours post meal, my capillary glucose reading 9.0mmol 😱 Couldn't believe it, after 30 minutes I checked again, 8.7mmol 🥴
As usual, I'm very worry that it's the time my pancreas going to fail me, I googled up lab to test my HBA1c. Few days ago, I came across Insta reel regarding thin people getting prediabetes cause of low muscle mass.
Since I started training in ICU in Oct 2024, I had started ordering Grab with colleagues for lunch despite concerning about microplastics from the packaging, and much spending.
So, I have decided, from now on, I'm going to eat clean, and prepare my lunch meal every single day. And survey how much I spend on my daily meal a week. Yesterday bought bunch of whole foods veggies that hopefully can last for 1 week...
👆My dinner today, broccoli, cheese cubes, abalone mushroom and an 🥚 (Day 2 clean eat). My lunch was broccoli stems and more abalone mushroom and cheese cubes and an 🥚. Cost me:
Broccoli 🥦 x1= RM 3
2 eggs= RM 0.70
Abalone mushroom= RM 2.98
TOTAL= 11 🤑
Hope my HBA1c comes back normal.....
