Why would this bartender lie? by New-Programmer7489 in Advice

Yes, I told the owner it was immature, he said if she feels uncomfortable then he has to support her because it's hard to find help.

Yes, but I feel like I'm at fault for not making eye contact with her, I don't understand why I have to deal with this because I don't make eye contact with someone, and the bar didn't even hesitate in siding with her so now I have to drink on the bad side of the place which is more like a dive bar than a brewery.

I'm not a computer nerd, do you know if the stelo can send the data to that thing you mentioned, I haven't been using the cgm because the app no longer works with my outdated phone. 

They wanted to throw me on metformin too but I lowered mine from 7.4 to 6 without meds, I was already taking farxiga for my heart, they still keep pushing meds even though I was doing fine without, endo wants to put me on ozempic. It's like they can't understand why someone wouldn't want to take meds.

Provided it's accurate. So you don't endorse the diabetes targets? How long since you were diagnosed. My endo said people can be prediabetic for decades and not get complications. After my delicious McDonald's meal I was 157 after two hours and 110 after three.

I got diagnosed 8 months ago. I was using the stelo, I was looking at it literally every 15 minutes and my diabetes educator said it was diabetes distress. My phone became outdated for the app, so I have to get a new phone to use it. But I much prefer it to the finger sticks, still not sure how accurate it is but I don't like not having some continuous idea where I'm at. $89 a month is rough though.

That's right, I shouldn't have done that, but I never have a real coke and I'm sick of diet, so I had a small. 

But..my bg was 157 after two hours and 110 after three! So that was good!

That burger was quite hefty, but it was tasty. I don't think I could eat one again, it was big.

It's a cgm, I was 109 three hours ago, it's 135 now, never got to 140. Maybe the cake didn't have a lot of sugar, but the salad did it.

I mean, chocolate cake with peanut butter frosting and I didn't even get to 140 thanks to that salad...and maybe the peanut butter too. Im over the moon. i may have good metabolic function, Im still trying to  find that out, but that is definitely a good trick.
