Hiya,

I just wanted to share what a fabulous day I had yesterday with my BS tests....these are the lowest results I have ever had... especially for the pre breakfast reading which is usually around 9.2...

Before Breakfast 7.6 - 1 large Spicy Pork Sausage with cream cheese and 1 bread stick
After Breakfast 7.7

Before Lunch 5.2 - Green Salad with coleslaw and roast chicken
After Lunch 5.8

Before Dinner 5.2 - Salmon with ginger & garlic and large portion of broccoli
After Dinner 5.1

(followed by dessert 2 hrs later of Strawberries & blackberries with cream and 1oz chopped nuts)

Woo hoo I'm taking control and it feels fabulous.

Brilliant! Well done you!

Are your after meal readings 2 hours after?

If so that's great recovery!

Thanks everyone for your kind replies... its good to meet a group of people who have gone or are going through the same things as me, you have all really helped me with all your postings and comments. I now make a point of coming on here every morning and getting my dose of motivation by reading as many posts as I can. I'm learning something new every day!

@VinnyJames - yes my readings are 2 hours after each meal. I only test more if I start to feel a little unwell, by that I mean I seem to get a kind of pressure headache when my bloods go too high or too low after a meal.. its a strange feeling that I didn't have before I starting eating to my meter.

Ut oh - think I celebrated too soon... this morning when I woke i was 6.8 but I obviously took too long getting ready for work and by the time I was ready for breakfast it went up to 8.3. 2hrs after breakfast I was 10.3 ahhhhhhh I must kick this old habit of low fat yoghurt grrrr it is definitely killing me. lol

@Kezzer4321 Yes, definitely post your recipe for the salmon please!!

And congratulations on your best day ever, hopefully you'll have many more. Don't let bad days get you down, as you now know how well you can do. Liver dumps and low fat yoghurt are rather good deflaters of ego aren't they!!:(

PS Is you avatar a little border terrier? I used to see a lovely little pair called Porky and Butch 30 odd years ago at dog training classes - their elderly male owner was so proud of them and kept them in immaculate condition. I was the only other person in the class who could tell them apart!
