Lemon grass grilled beef

Hello All,

I tried the lemon-grass grilled beef with rice noodle from a Vitnamese restraunt today. I ate beef first, and then salad, and then, 1 oz of rice noodle.

Out of curiosity, I tested after 1 hour. Opps, a record high of 200!! (before lunch was 83).

My worst number before was 160 - 1 hr after meal.

I know that beef is a little sweet today. But I did not expect 200.  I guess this entry is out!

Ok, here are the numbers:

2 hours after - 190
3 hours after - 112

The beef is a bit sweet and I ate 90% of it. Portion wise is big for me. I usually can handle up to 2 oz of rice/ rice noodle at one time without any major issue. But this one totally blew me away.

I really think it is the sauce they used to marinate/grill the beef got me that number. Anyway, it is too sweet for me even without thinking about blood sugar. It is OUT.

I am also wondering about the accuracy of my meter. I use AccuChek Aviva and just opened one new bottle of test strips. The code is right. The control solution tested right. But the other night, I got 144, 91, 91 within 3 minutes. I expect 91 but not 144 - 3 hours after a light dinner.

I can not figure out why, I just assume the 144 is a meter abnormality!

thanks Lanie!
