Thanks @loulou99782. I did have a mug of cocoa last night before I went to bed hoping it would soothe my throat, but it might not have helped my BG reading.

By the way @Prem51, your weight loss since August is heroic. I know this isn't the thread for it and sorry for going off-topic, but bloody well done.

Rather bizarre goings one today....

Had a shock with a 3.9 :eek: at 4:30, backed up with a 4.1 on 2nd attempt. Did another one just as I was going out of the door at 5AM and it was 4.9. (only water consumed by then)

Liver helping us out today. I'm considering having a breakfast prepared night before so eaten before liver can have a turn. If that's possible. The theory sounds good but very difficult fir me to action. It was just a thought. :meh: I'm not an early breakfast person.

Thanks @GeoffersTaylor! I did get down to 9st 11-12lbs for all of last week, but went up to 9st 13lbs on Sunday, and have been weighing in at 10st yesterday and today. I think I might have become a bit complacent, and I think I will be starting a fast tomorrow, for Lent, in the hope of getting down to 9st by Easter.

I seem to be stuck at just over 10 stone. I was 11st 13lb last May and I'd love to actually get to 9st 13lb so I can say I've lost 2 stone.

Bullies, discrimination of any kind, bad manners, parents who let their kids run amok & spoil things for everyone else, unkind spiteful people, being a clumsy clod, toast crumbs in the bed, cold feet!!
