[Diabetes-talk] High sugars in the wake of skipping a snack?

[d m gina]

Holy cow
I thought if the sugars were high in the morning, it was because you 
chose the wrong snack the night before.
I find if I don't have a snack at all, then I could eat an elephant.
Problem is, I don't think an elephant would fit in the front door.
So I guess I will choose another animal.
Not a bear, they love Montana smile.
