Sorry to derail folks but I think it’s important that newbie @squiggle1 receives the info post for newbies from @daisy1 . Squiggle, tagging daisy1 will result in her posting useful info for you.

Morning all just checking in. Decided this month should have none of the name tags offered and be called JAMuary - not the sugary food the one that sums it all up.

6.3 when I got up at 6.30. I've done two exercise sessions and 15k steps and its only come down to 5.3. No food. I wonder why that is? Thoughts?

Some thoughts. Firstly, what kind of exercise - high or low intensity? Secondly, how soon after exercise did you test? Thirdly, what makes you think it should be any different? Fourthly, what do I know anyhow?

Strange happening after I sat down with my first cup of heartstarter, I had a mouthful, swallowed it down, and promptly fell a sleep again in my chair. My partner gave me a shake to see if i was still in the land of the living when she woke up, it give her a fright to see me.
