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

I’ve thought for years that I was quite good at my Diabetes care in the past 6 month I’ve realised that I wasn’t quite the angel I thought I was. Like everyone I was hoping for an overnight miracle cure or at worst 2 days ( I’m not being serious ) but appreciate the advice thank you
 
You are aware that the maximum dosage for paracetamol is two tablets four times daily ( maximum of eight per day ). Hope the pain gets better soon
Thankyou for the reminder. Sometimes this is forgotten when in pain,I'll be very careful,just checked and put the dose for today aside so I can't make mistake.Many thanks!
 
I'm curios about the Fitbit. I have app which is free and tracks steps and cycling but of course it's on a phone which is mainly ok but not ways

Have only had it 24 hours but I like it so much. When you are on a run it monitors your heart rate for optimal benefit and safety. There several different models but the one I have does just about everything except pay for itself.
They dont come cheap but what price health not to mention better BG control. I did an extra half days work to pay for it
 
7.5 :arghh:

Still on antibiotics and went food shopping when hungry and feeling rough. The Oppo ice cream jumped into my basket - and I ate it all, oh the shame .....

About to do an online food order so I can avoid temptation ;)



I've got my flu jab at 3.30pm this afternoon. Can I have some ice cream tomorrow please? Can I? Can I? Can I? Can I??????????
 
Day 6 on my " Low Insulin " one meal a day 100% nutrients diet., Om3/Om 6 balanced diet.

Fasting blood sugar 4.4, average for the previous day 4.8 high of 6.6 after my 3 course 1000 calorie meal.

I have lost 4.6 kg and 4 cm off my waist in 6 days flat whilst eating so much at one meal a day that I might burst.

This is insane - but splendid ! long may it continue

Getting it off is the easy part. Keeping it off - thats the difficult part.!
Just hangon in there.

I've been dieting for 6 months with zero effect before this having hit a stall in March after an initial 25kg weight loss in the first 6 months- so it starting to come off again is big news for me. I will worry about the keeping it there if I ever get to that point !

This sure rang bells for me. Should know better but guess i too was in a degree of denial. Guess it was the realisation that bad effects could happen and sooner if I continued to bury my head in the sand. Better late than never as my eyes, kidneys and feet have not suffered as a result of this denial. Have been very lucky
