Yet really I do. It is keeping me accountable for my food issues at a time when it can be very easy to pretend things are fine just because I\u2019m eating food I wouldn\u2019t at home.<\/p>\n<p>Which brings me back to that nemesis of pizza.<\/p>\n<p>Last night I went out with an old friend. I\u2019ve been wanting to try pizza again and this seemed a great opportunity. By \u201ctry\u201d, I am referring to both conquering the fear of the calories and just as significant, conquering the BS challenge.<\/p>\n<p>For the first challenge, I did\u2026 okay. My mind was on the calories and I did leave pieces at the end. Yet I ate and enjoyed so those are success points.<\/p>\n<p>The second? Better than in the past, yet still not good. It\u2019s the combination of cheese and carbs. The rise is slow and steady and insidious (kind of like developing an ED\u2026 hmm). I used a mix of regular and square bolus and ended up hovering at 15 for most of the night (of course with then some added correction boluses). Being away, it\u2019s hard, b\/c I really don\u2019t want to have a stubborn low while here. That gets too scary.<\/p>\n<p>It may be that pizza is something that I just have to forego. It\u2019s hard to say that with a clear conscience of it being a diabetes health choice and not an ED choice.<\/p>\n<p>Sometimes it is murky.\u00a0<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.pixabay.com\/photo\/2016\/08\/27\/22\/43\/pond-1625059__340.jpg\" alt=\"Pond, Lake, Calm, Gloomy, Fog, Autumn\" width=\"252\" height=\"189\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Tonight\u2019s challenge?
