Despite warnings of a retaliatory attack, madam BG isn't beating a retreat as one would expect. I despair again.
7.4
This just won't do and am beginning to wonder if my weapons are faulty.

good morning all :)

4.6 today

blooming snow here yesterday again, fed up of being cold at the moment, never mind, I'll gird up my loins, lag up my legs and go out for a walk this morning :)
@geefull good luck with the girding and lagging sounds painful but I do agree what's happened to our lovely spring days??K

thank you it seems to me the blood glucose numbers raise a bit or fall a bit for no apparent reason... in my case I have been relaxing a lot and have had days of off my fitness regimen .. and have been eating a few easter treats and even had lower numbers in spite of that... I think ones individual biology have some rythm varying over time.. independantly of food choices too.. but still the most important to a low average blood glucose will always be the low carb choices and ones rutine of exercise
@Freema keep up the fight your going great! K

hey glad you are okay, I really don´t know what difference I have done that has lowered my numbers in the mornings a bit...I think maybe it is due to me taking more vitamin D and a multivitamin pill too and trying to see what reservatol does to me, my father had Alzheimers and I am afraid to end up the same way myself.... and that my sister will too, so read that reservatol is thought to lower the risk of Alzheimers, funnily I also yesterday read that it is thought to lower insuline resistance too... but you know new products are almost always praised to be close to a miracle medication that cures almost every disease one might catch or already have inherited
But now I´ll try taking that for some month and see what change it might lead towards

Well I got a shock - had some exercise yesterday and stopper the Easter buns and chocolate - 6.4 yesterday at 7am but 7.2 this mornings at the same time and I was really good yesterday
I was only 4.8 before dinner last evening and 8.6 two hours after dinner and would have expected better than 7.2 this morning
