I had bacon wrapped scallops for breakfast this morning instead of my usual bacon and eggs. Very tasty, but what a mistake! I got hungry way before lunch. Back to bacon and eggs from now on.

Brekkie, 9bar and coffeencream
Lunch, baconneggs
Snack, 2sq 70% choc
Dinner, left it too late and wanted food NOW. So had a thrilling combo of salmon pate, miso soup, green salad, coyo and one chocolate.

We had a bit of a crisis today at work - total toilet failure. So I stopped drinking, and am now guzzling liquids like a camel to make up.

Breakfast: chicken
Lunch: Brie
Dinner: - was freezing when I got home, so went for the lowest carb hot thing I could think of that didn't need defrosting! - bacon, cooked to a crisp and scrambled eggs with chilli.

Was okay. Would rather have cheese and celery though.

How are you feeling today Avocado sweetie?
Much much better thanks :)

Woke up so hydrated this morning that I am 2 pounds heavier. Not complaining though. No pain so far today, but am fully armed just in case. Tested fbg twice and got 5.9 and 6.7. Have ordered some strips for my Nano.

Busy day at work so just keeping my head down, keeping out of fights and looking forward to home time. Something warm and comforting for dinner tonight I think :hungry:

Hope you are all having a good day. Thank you for your kind wishes and top tips x

Now that I have ended my Diabetes Miracle inverstigation (;)) I find myself at a loose end, testing wise.

And then I remembered the pack of Nairn's cheese oat cakes in the cupboard.
Clearly an indepth testing regime is required, in the interests of Science.

So I have just eaten 4 of them (3,7 g carbs each) with butter.
Double testing revealed bg of 6.5 and 7 at 10.55 this morning.
(breakfast was 0.5 g carb coyo, at 8.30, so shouldn't interfere with this highly systematic exploration.)
and yes, they were DELICIOUS!

Will report back in 1 and 2 hours.

I expect you will all be hanging on the edge of your seats!!!

Well, I was going to economise on posts, and save this up for the 2 hour slot.
But your feverish anticipation is so encouraging, here are the 1 hr results:

8.1 and 8.4

( also tested at 40 mins - yes, I am bored - and was 8.5 and 9.1 then. not impressed. but it looks like I have passed the hump!)
