GOOD AFTERNOON/EVENING.

@Liam1955 thanks Liam, I gave up crisps but do miss them, might try a bag, but not cheese & onion! Used to love those. Hope your feeling much better now @ ickihun. Have good day tomorrow.
 
@maureen5752 - Hi, don't know if you watch calories? I don't. I just check/ look at the sugar content of foods. But, you could look at other flavours of Crisps and perhaps get the flavour lowest in sugar. Richard's flame grilled steak crisps are only 0.7g of sugar per bag.
A lot of people seem to think - can't have this and can't have that = why not? It's all about moderation and not too often, but not to starve yourself! Wx

Have a good evening. Thanks again
 
Good Afternoon Folks. :)
That's us home, shopping away feet up and having a coffee. Day did not start off very good. Alarm went off at 8am and I thought will just have 5 more minutes, next thing it is 9.10am and all Hell broke loose. We left at 10.25am and got to the Hospital for 10.50am for a 11am appointment and realised forgot to have my Insulin this morning. (My fasting was 6.3 ) Saw the Dermatologist and I have had in total 9 Cosentyx Injections so far, next one is next week. Dermatologist says it is not working as good as it should? Got spots of Psoriasis breaking out on my ankles, shins and knees -but it could be due to all the stress of the past couple of months?
R and I went to my Sisters house for a lite lunch, and we took their 25th Wedding (Silver) Anniversary Card and Present (Silver plated double photo frame) as they fly off to Gran Canaria for 10 days on early Saturday and will open the cards on Holiday.:)
Then at 2.30pm went and did our weekly grocery shopping in Morrison's = Yuk!!! But, enjoyed our shopping in Home Bargains and then Home.
Having Rolls and Corned Beef with cucumber chutney (home made) for me and R having Rolls and Roast Beef with chutney.
Tomorrow at 9am got my Retinal Screening Test -my 16th test.

@Liam1955. Yes I noticed but to late id already read it, they took out the comment of try half of tablet, Suppose they were just trying to protect themselves, you never posted anything you shouldn't have, you wouldn't do that your to nice, don't worry x
 
Thank You @maureen5752 - You are so Kind, I remember now. We are not allowed to tell people from a medical point as we are not qualified as Doctors. So they were justified to remove that bit. I shall be more aware in the future and 'pick my word's' carefully. Going to make Evening Meal now. Will chat later. :) Liam.
 
Just been catching up with this thread

Good luck and best wishes to the folk having a rough time lately
 
Afternoon all...hope you have all had a good day. My BS(bloo.. sugars) are all over the place am Fed Up
 
Have you seen this website @ellagy ? www.dietdoctor.com I was gobsmacked when I first found out about this way of eating. After 10yrs of Metformin and then Gliclazide I was able to control my diabetes by following the lchf way of eating and came off all of my meds within months of eating low carb and upping my exercise to two walks per day

Thank you 13lizanne... I have seen the site but am already doing LCHF ...for the last week or so. my lowest reading was 7.7 and my highest 18.8... today I started with 16.9 and it is still at 12.9. At least they appear to be going down. We do eat at about 8-8.30 so that might have a bearing on it as far as FBS is concerned. Am trying to persuade Mr E to eat earlier.
 
Good evening to you all. A new thriller on itv "paranoia" starts tonight...might watch it for once:)

I was totally shattered so had an early night. I'm glad no nasty surprises at screening. :)
