oh you very naughty person you. kebabs at the weekend usually have a liquid intake prior if you enjoyed it and its a rare one off no biggie. every day obviously thats diffrent. quite shocked when i saw how many carbs where in one.
i know im very naughty ;) it even came with chips to be fair i only ate about ten of them and only half the pitta bread i only have it occasionally expected bgs to be about 10ish :wideyed: i just thought what the hell and the liquid intake will be today as with the kebab now that would of just been greedy :joyful: alittle bit of what you fancy does you no harm occasionally thats my excuse and im sticking to it haha enjoy your weekend :)
 
Good morning everyone. It's very cold and icy here! Think I will be staying in today brrrrr! 5.7 today, I'm happy with that . Have a good day.
Hi paula121s same weather here in Lancashire hate icy ❄️ weather had a few slips on hidden ice it's a bit scary! K
 
Morning all. 7.6 at 8am. Higher than I'd like but lower than I was expecting as I've started with a proper old fashioned cold and treated myself to a slice of hot buttered toast just before bedtime. Well, they say "Feed a cold" and I was suddenly hungry! :angelic::hungry:;) Have a good day and keep warm.:)
hope the cold passes quickly xx
