Re: Recipes. You could always roast some whole Garlic cloves to go with that ;) hhhhhhhhhhhhhmmmm heavenly

Dennis makes a lot of sense there (and also told me some things I hadn't realised, like eating apples and plums is ok - on that note I've had great results with strawberries and cherries, both delivering low pp bgs) - regarding the environment in which you work, as a diabetic worker you are...

you cheeky blighter!

oi! where's my chair?!?! ok I'm at 6 at the mo *sniff* but it WAS 5.6 last time!

I pm'd you Trink :) xx

Keep the fath hun, you will start to gain better control of your diabetes and as Hana said, might get near-non-diabetic numbers ... low carbing is the way I've chosen to control my diabetes and you sound like you have your head around it - although it can take a little while to kick in ... I...

Hiya Steve and welcome to the forum, if you browse around the threads you are sure to pick up lots of useful information, try peeking into the low carb forum, and therein a thread on recipes that might help you stave away the hunger-beast. the hunger might be your body missing the carbs or...

awwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww ... bless your heart! thanks for your sweet words and total kindness ... I think it shouldn't be too hard to come off them, the type is different to ones that I had before, when it was a real struggle to come off them (nightmare, I got the brain shakes!) - I wasn't...

cheers my lovelies ... gotta keep the chin (or chins in my case HAH) up regardless eh - but it IS so nice to report positive times once in a while :) as to the podiatrist, my DSN poked my feet and said I didn't need to go /// BUT you should be awware that as a diabetic you can self-refer to...

Nah no explanation, but it wasn't until I'd left the "clinic" that I went to pick up my repeat scrips and found the test strips were the only ones that had NOT been signed off ... poooo ... still, if I got 50 a month I could probably accept that, as long as they don't take them away completely...

Nice work tubs, VERY nice work - just seen that you at the halfway mark!!! WOOHOOO!!!!!! xxx

I attended my first diabetic clinic on Friday last week, and had to report how good it was. My hba1c is up to 6.0 (it was down to 5.6 before Xmas) but I put that down to carb-loading over the festive bingeson, sorry I mean season. Total cholesterol is up to 6.0 whereas it was down to 4.0...

congratulations on the hba1c love that's BRILL! as to the battered burger, did you still test at 2 hours or when you say straight away, do you mean literally after you ate it? if that was the case (immediately after eating) then it's because it didn't get into your system yet. if it was at...
