New month, new strips, 7.0 which is fine! I would have taken a second reading but having learnt the cost of the strips yesterday, I'm now going to go cautiously with the strips! Have a great day Everyone!

Edit - Two hours post breakfast - 7.3 and on the back up meter which always reads at least two points less - 5.0. I'm pleased!

4.7 this morning. Better than expected since I gave myself a hyper episode yesterday. I'd been for a decent walk before lunch (just over 3 miles) and figured I could indulge a few carbs. I bough a lovely Chinese pork bao - big mistake. An hour later I became very tired, my vision blurred a bit and I got a headache. It ruined the whole afternoon.

Because I have such good FBG levels through very low carbing, people (including my Diabetic nurse), sometimes ask if I'm really diabetic. Then I have a day like yesterday and the answer is an emphatic "YES"
Yep, that's how it goes
