1/4 - Good Morning from a looks like rain? York. Hope you all have a lovely Saturday :). Hugs to the poorly people.
You know me so well 're: Chocolate :D. Why do you think I got an 8.1 fasting this morning! And I drank loads of water before bed in the hope of weeing out as much sugar during the night = obviously didn't work :rolleyes:.
I feel your pain, William... I never met a bar of chocolate I didn't like. :sorry:

In Spain last Sunday evening, I had a huge slice of chocolate cake with a decorative biscuit and cream. The following morning the fasting reading was 5.0 but I had walked about eight miles that day ..... For me there's no logic to it all!

Have a great day everyone!

Although if mostly cream or philly cream but reheated biscuit and a little sponge, may not have been too detrimental if only a small piece?

Prior to that a huge tuna and red pepper/onion salad with loads of olive oil. I think numbers are all about balancing food choices?

I hadn't had my usual cocoa for breakfast for a few days and just felt like some chocolate! The following day on my BA (cheap) flight back to London, they served a small meal which for me was falafel and chick pea salad and ..... wait for it ..... a chocolate brownie! I was a good girl and only ate half!

@PansyP - that too sounds Yummy. The Falafel and chick pea salad, how was your blood sugar then? Was it in range?

Well the following day, fasting was up- 11.9!!! I wasn't though feeling well, slightly weepy and with no appetite! All I had was two cups of cocoa and a seeded oatcake!

With all this talk about chocolate, I too must confess to having eaten a chocolate and walnut brownie on holiday AND a caramel magnum - it's the law! You have to eat ice-cream on holiday:rolleyes:

Morning all, it's a lovely sunny day today. I'm going to a spring fayre just round the corner from my mums today so it will be a lovely spring walk. I won't be indulging at the cake stall but I might bring back a little something for A. Red velvet cake is his favourite!
