I noticed halfway into work and turned around for it though.<BR/><BR/>Frustrating.<BR/><BR/>Testing so many times a day and then being cut off cold turkey for a day must be very unnerving.<BR/><BR/>Sorry you went through that, but also pretty impressed with how well you did!Kevinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06896184498657223994noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20953083.post-69049744379337658152007-02-08T15:20:00.000-08:002007-02-08T15:20:00.000-08:00I thought of Ryan's "Spidey sense" post too!I'd tr...I thought of Ryan's "Spidey sense" post too!<BR/><BR/>I'd try to eat very little carb and stick to things I know exactly the carb count for. <BR/><BR/>You'll make it! And I'm sure you'll be ultra deligent about your meter for awhile :) That's what happens to me whenever I forget something!Kelseyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15158609377041501796noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20953083.post-2666285993415073042007-02-08T12:47:00.000-08:002007-02-08T12:47:00.000-08:00Either go to Walgreens/Rite-Aid/cheap pharmacy of ...Either go to Walgreens/Rite-Aid/cheap pharmacy of choice and buy a cheap meter that comes with strips, or just bag it. Honestly, the 8 hours of not testing is not going to kill you. It sucks, but people have survived on much longer. Like me, for instance. Meter broke while I was in Paris and it took me a full 24 hours before I could get another one. I was high, but that's because I went such a long time without testing. You can manage 8 more hours and then test and correct when you get home. Not ideal to do often, but once won't hurt you much.Allisonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09845901120926051578noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20953083.post-71295812032408710322007-02-08T12:10:00.000-08:002007-02-08T12:10:00.000-08:00Haha, that sucks.

I panic about blood sugars if I can’t check them.Sarahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02841767505240383644noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20953083.post-78296174760356786512007-02-08T11:21:00.000-08:002007-02-08T11:21:00.000-08:00Oh man...

I would stick to eating things that I absolutely know the carbs for and how my body deals with it. <BR/><BR/>Hope you had a better rest of your day.Ericahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12650990160980367237noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20953083.post-53876016599308964982007-02-08T09:32:00.000-08:002007-02-08T09:32:00.000-08:00George, You could try calling your local CVS or Br...George, <BR/><BR/>You could try calling your local CVS or Brooks or whatever you guys have out there. The One Touch mini is supposed to be around or under $20. Also, the crappy TruTrak meters come with strips and are on the lower end cost wise, I think... Unfortunately, I live 1.4 miles from work and we have a stash of meters here :( so I don't face this problem often while at work.melhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02949561382847045332noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20953083.post-29569171533498031352007-02-08T08:59:00.000-08:002007-02-08T08:59:00.000-08:00George, that bites!
