I wanted to share with you a fresh observation from the field of my health. By changing my lifestyle I have found a delicate balance in how my body works. For a few weeks I have been following the list of foods with my finger. I have managed without sugar shocks and kept my blood sugar within reasonable limits. Yesterday I was in Tallinn and had a couple of hours of free time. I went to eat at the Võiroos café in Kadriorg. Without much thought, out of old habit, I bought two meat pies with my omelette. I thought there would be no harm in it.

On my sugar monitor I saw my blood sugar shoot up to the sky. For me this comes, among other troubles, with severe diarrhoea. Only today is the situation starting to return to normal.

In the old days, when I did not know how to notice such things, two meat pies seemed such a trivial thing.
