When I was putting my breakfast and lunch together this morning, I just couldn’t imagine having eggs again, so I made a sandwich!  Note to self: coffee and a sandwich do not go well together!

Did you have a parent or grand parent that would order a coffee at a fast food restaurant with their burger?  My Grammy definitely did and I think Tony’s mom did the same thing at The Whopper (what she would call Burger King!)

  • 1 low carb wrap
  • 2 ounces browned deli turkey
  • 1 ounce ham
  • 1.2 ounce swiss cheese
  • Tabasco mustard
I dipped each bite into the Tabasco mustard - yum!

I routinely find this at my local grocery store - you should try it!

Breakfast comes in at 315 calories, 15 fat, 33 protein, 24 carbs and 14 fiber.

So I test my blood sugar about 4-6 times per day.  I had one vial that kept giving me an error message every time I put the test strip in – I wasted about 26 test strips and each one failed.  I bought a new battery for my meter, but still got error messages – even with insurance these are about .50 cents a test strip! 

I called the manufacturer and after a few tests on my meter, they determined that the test strips were not working, and they shipped me via FedEx 50 test strips – nice!  Although I told Tony that I had a scare this morning – each box of strips comes with chip with a code on it that has to match with the test strips. 

I didn’t pay attention to it, but after I put the new chip in, I went to check my blood sugar and I looked down and it said 950!  I thought that was my blood sugar for a second, but realized that was just the number of the code for the strips!  Whew!

Morning break is over – I have leftover Taco Soup for lunch – this weather has been so weird this summer – here it is July 10 and it was 62 degrees when I left the house!
