4.8 for me this morning. Didn’t get to post as I was busy loading the car for the long drive to Cornwall.
Arrived safely in spite of torrential rain the last hour.

@Ziggy2017 happy anniversary. I can’t believe you were worried about a flu jab after all you’ve been through - but glad the jab was ok.
@Freema I hopeyou’ve had a wonderful birthday.
@Chronicle_Cat well done! Great results there, and a testament to your dedication.

Congratulations nobody said it's easy. Now stop wimpping about, the flu jab is less painful than the blood tests and you know it. It's also a dead virus. Now I can't stand the eye drops for the eye test....help

No eye drops for me :D and the flu jab was a little stingy but as you said blood tests are worse the eye test was just a thing I had to look into follow a light and then a little flash which made it a bit hard to see as all I could see was pink or blue circles in my eyes

Tough week for me this week. I've been trying to get both my blood glucose level and weight down. I've been very strict with eating, so I think stress has been responsible. I've also had a bit of achilles tendonitis so I had some rest days or shorter workouts. I've been fasting more frequently than usual to counteract this.

Blood glucose was 4.9 this morning.

I did get a loss on my scale of 2 lbs (.91 kg) for a total of 54.99 lbs (24.94 kg) I'm now within 1.5 lbs of my lowest weight in over 25 years - 218.6 lbs today (24.94 lb). I measured my waist (don't do this weekly) to discover I've lost another 2", total of 7" so far which is good as I really want to reduce my visceral fat in my organs and around the waist.

You are doing so well. You must be delighted. Well done.
