What was your fasting blood glucose? (with some chat)

Well done x

I knew there was one reason I had a cold

 

[Goacher55]

Absolutely no harm meant I'm sure, and a 3 lb weight loss is nothing to be sniffed at so congratulations, hope your cold gets better soon ! K

I’d love to take any credit for the 3 lb loss

Same song different artist actually the one who wrote it and different video but sentiment the same.

Loved it! K

@Troubled1 Your bg readings are great !
So has the temperature picked up in Canada,? It's just you say better than the cold weather!
Your cold and ours mean entirely different things I suspect! ️Brrrrrr hope your keeping warm and well! K

Temps aren’t any better. -21°c at 6:10am with the wind it feels like -27°c. Not super cold but not very pleasant either.

 

[Troubled1]

Bg’s 6.5 at 6:10am. Not too worried as they usually drop into the 4’s as the day goes on.

 

[Goacher55]

Hi Troubled1 I'll take your word on that, minus anything is definitely cold in UK I am definitely a softy hate the cold whatever the temperature. K

-21 my freezer isn’t even that cold

 

[Troubled1]

I’m just glad my newly installed radiant heater in my garage works. Sitting near it is like being in the sun....... minus the cold of course.

Hi Troubled1 Your a braver person than me sitting in a garage definitely not,especially with your weather heater or not!
Would be if I had a choice besides a log burning fire hot drink in my hand comfy and warm,not in a garage,unless it's your place of work then you obviously don't have much choice. Anyway what I would or wouldn't do is irrelevant has you have to live with it all so you have to get out their in it,but I so wish you well,and hope your new radiant radiator keeps to toasted. Take care K

dogslife and Ymdawd hugs to you both it's awful how thing can change in an instant for us diabetics sometimes we know what's caused it but sometimes we have Know idea why?
But lots of us at this time of year have some kind of virus coming on and it's not apparent until it comes out properly,I've noticed this in the last month with one problem or another,anyway hopefully this phase won't last and you'll both be back to your usual BG readings soon. Good luck and take care of yourselves.K
