before breakfast today my bg was 8.6 which i thought was good for a morning reading, but better still after lunch it was 6.4...still get a blip now and then but seems its getting back to reasonable levels
you are right mike, i havent been thirsty or had any dizzy spells lately :) and for the icing on the top, im wearing a tee-shirt that has been too small for me for at least 9 months.. i was wearing a 3xl shirt, now im in a normal xl, so the diet is definately helping me

1st was this morning 9.8
2nd was this morning 2 hours after breakfast 8.4 (i blame the sausages(ran out of bratwurst) and beans)
3rd was 2 hours after lunch 8.2
