Excellent and 7s becoming more frequent. Whatever you are doing keep doing it

5.5 today. Happy.

Out of the 4s at the mo. I think it's because I'm not losing weight but trying to maintain so perhaps eating a little more. Including a supper of a couple of pieces of 85% choc. Also less walking at the moment. But it's all in a great cause!!! #birminghamevent #timeforchange #bringiton

Didn't want to depress myself so am giving the mornings a break and took it this afternoon.5.9. So getting less stressed about it all.

I‘m convinced our hot weather is affecting our readings!

I really hope so.... in september after my brothers wedding in Mexico, I´ll go low calories again for a while and as low carbs as I can manage and still eat evening meal with my vegetarian daugther... but I have collected my last metformin tablets which I´ll use while being in Mexico; while having no control over what I am going to be served .. and by the way I´ll enjoy their wedding menu fully... but the metformin will take 1 mmol off daily at least I know..
but I guess bread and beans and potatoes and corn are a very big part of their diet over there... will buy a lot of nuts when arriving to have on the go , and cucumbers ...

Don’t forget they also eat lots of rice in Mexico - that sends my readings rocketing but curry without rice is definitely a no-no. Enjoy your visit!

Good morning all 4.9 for me this morning First sub 5 since I stopped some meds, but I'm on an extended fast as well. Still very happy with the results. Have a great weekend everyone

4.8 yesterday

6.0 today!

If I don’t exercise my fasting bg levels goes up between 5.5-6.2 mmols/l.

Could it be what they call an “insulin resistance”?

8.6 this morning and it's looking nice so the cry of "to the woods, to the woods" rung out so my waddle today will be a natural wilderness adventure with an eye open for Mr Attenborough cos you never know.

okay I didn´t know they did fancy rice that much... luckily I am not that fond of rice myself ...so I guess I´ll eat half a cow on the forthnight we are there.. and all the eggs available too
