Soup and a Sandwich

I have discovered that having some vegetable soup, a grilled cheese sandwich, and a stick of string cheese doesn't make my sugars soar.

Had half a can of soup, a sandwich, and string cheese for lunch and an hour later my sugars were 87. I thought that was just crazy! I did a 2 hour test and it said 90. Three points higher, but still so low. Had it again for dinner (so I could finish off the can of soup) and my sugars were 101. Some of my sugars were probably left over from my snack of a strawberry, lemonade smoothie I made with Greek yogurt and Splenda.

A word of warning for anyone thinking of using Greek yogurt for smoothies, it's pretty sour on its own. So with the lemon juice I put in the smoothie it was fairly tart. Though, I like tart, but the flavor or strawberries was hard to sense, though I could tell I'd definitely used Greek yogurt, haha!
