I there, well about twelve hours had passed when I took the tests. I
just awoke now and took my sugar. It is "101" That's really weird. I
have eaten nothing in the last 5.5 hours while I slept, but it went up
23 points.

I've lost about twenty pounds over the last few months also. Perhaps
that is making things a little easier. I'm just glad it didn't drop to
below zero while I slept. I could have woke up to find that the
groundhog was bringing me my mail.
