6.9 mmol / L this morning.
4.7 mmol / L at bed time.

Slept through alarm or more likely switched it off in my sleep. So, undoubtably surfing my dawn phenomenon this morning - with added stress!

Morning everyone:)
Yesterday:
8pm - 1/4 of large Pukka chicken and gravy pie, small can of Tesco broad beans
10pm - BG 6.2
0am- BG 4.7
Today:
7.50am "fasting" BG - 6.5 :-/
Any thoughts why? I decided to have only meds, coffee with full fat milk and xylitol, no breakfast and will check at 9.50am. I feel good and no hunger at all:-o

AND:
My scale showed 119.4 kg, which is 400 gr less than yesterday:)
I therefore officially seem to have broken the ONE STONE LESS barrier:-D
Yeehaah;-)

"Pizza effect" with the Pukka Pie pastry? They make it with lard like pastry was meant to be made.

Well done on loosing your stone - if it were plural it would sound painful! Wait, what, too far? ;)

Seriously though, congratulations!

On a final note where's my eighty pence?

Thursday at 6.15am 4..2mmol/L. Cold this morning, but beautifully sunny by lunchtime. Great walking weather. Swimming this afternoon.

Baruney from your figures,
if 6g=13.2 lbs. then 6kg = ( 13.2 x 1000 ) =1320.0 lbs.
Lots to be said for decimals. And typos are worse than celery!
Yeah Yeah yeah. Mainly post from the phone and pedicure text can some time be quite unpredictable.

Well spotted sir - you have passed your eye test but failed to convince in the promotion of the devil's vegetable.

Have a great swim. Sea is only 250 (yes 250) meters from the house but only been in a few times (voluntarily) - afraid of sharks you see.

6.0 fasting. Back down in saga central. Didn't do Hyde park Yeasterday but 5 mile run out along the south bank and returned on the north bank. Still not alot of smiles but had a couple of eye brow acknowledgements a smile and a how you're doing so vast improvement.

In its defence there's a lot less dog poop to avoid - just the cheap sea tractors and ego's. Left that predictive text in - original input = chealsea.

Still to experiment on a flour substitute. Is a combination the best way forward for a roux? Not tried as yet.

Morning all

6.0 for me today.

Should get my latest HbA1c results this afternoon. My averages suggest I should be seeing around 5.1, which I would be very pleased with - it was 5.5 last time. Just need to get through the receptionists.....
