Today it is 106 so far in my area. How do you eat right, when its hot I want to eat fruit but my hubbie said it’s a no no to much sugar? I would kill for some pineapple about now, I have to eat small snacks but it’s just to hot to want to eat. And what I want to eat I can’t!!!

Any good ideas for things to eat when it’s hot another thing I Miss jumba juice that would hit the spot perfect right about now. I know I have to be good my numbers have been so out of wack this week 60 to 180’s

Wish I could share your pain. We got flippin snow today. My kids wore winter jackets to school. I do remember hot weather though...sort of...I think. What about crushed ice. Or popsicles..they must have sugar free. If I were you...I'd eat the fruit. LOL...Cause I love fruit..it's my favorite food.

Actually Dole makes some frozen fruit bars that have limited carbs in them and I found them to be very tasty. I don't ahve any in the house right now so I can't look up the actual name for you. Look in the air conditioned grocery store and see if you can't find them. No fair crawling in the freezer compartment though!


The heat is doing a real number on me too so I sympathize with you. Have been havinga terrrrrible time with my blood sugar also crashing. We will get ours bearing back and get this under control.
