6.9 this morning it seems lower when I eat protein and something light the night before.
They are something I miss too. Waitrose were selling off packs of mini ones for 28p. I tried one bun instead of lunch yesterday - 16 carbs. Came back 5.2 @ 2 hrs - part of a very, very good day so I have sympathy for you.8.5 this morning - succumbed to a hot cross bun last night! (was very nice I have to say).
Hi DJC3. To be fair I'm on metformin and since a couple of months ago, gliclazide. Since those two 5.8s I've been in the 7s, I was 7.0 this morning.Wow! But great that you’ve stuck with it. It’s good for newbies like me to know it’s not always a quick fix.
@James13 Well done on your progress. Try "coming over to the dark side" re chocolate - melted 100% cocoa mass or dark chocolate with cream and sweetener - liquid is good - works well. You can't eat much as it is very rich and low carb. Maybe worth a try?Hi DJC3. But my biggest achievement has been having 25g of chocolate in a week, instead of about 100-150g daily! No other sugary stuff either - sweets, cakes, biscuits etc.
Good luck and all the best.

I'm pleased that my first week on Weight Watchers has gone well, lost 4 pounds. But my biggest achievement has been having 25g of chocolate in a week, instead of about 100-150g daily! No other sugary stuff either - sweets, cakes, biscuits etc.
My revelation was that the more chocolate I ate the more I wanted. But having broken that habit now I don't crave sugar like I did.
Good luck and all the best.
Where are you normally at? And what did you eat last night7.3 first thing a bit disappointing.
Succum away young Janet I absolve you of all guilt but you will need the fbg fairy for future transgressions - you have an impish look young lady so I suspect the fairy may become a friend!
OMG, no one deserves to do IKEA however bad they may have been Barbaric treatment of an innocent young lady.I’ve punished myself already with a trip round IKEA and Homebase. My husband asked me why I was becoming aggressive. Did he think I was actually enjoying it? I need more than a fbg fairy.
What is meant by water fast?5.1 at 7.40am. Third day of a water fast.
A water fast usually means nothing but water all day. Fasting period can be what you said - i.e. from last meal of the day until breakfast - through to 18 hours (IF Intermittent fasting) or 23 hours ( One meal a day). Hope this helpsWhat is meant by water fast?
