    Weekly weigh in - Fridays

    Thanks. I have skipped lunch a couple of times for one reason or another (busy, not hungry...) and have felt fine and had a reduction in my BG. So I'll keep that tool in the arsenal... (see what I did there? Arsenal? lol ;) )

    Type 2s: What was your fasting blood glucose in a morning? (very low chat level)

    6.7 at 07:20 Grrr! [was 5.7 yesterday.....I'm pretty sure I forgot to take my medication last night. Oopsie!]

    I suspect I may have to try that after a while. I had a sneaky look on Monday and had lost but I'm not telling until Friday as I don't trust a result until it has remained off for the week if you see what I mean. I'm still at the beginning of my LCHF and still have another 2.5 maybe 3 stones...

    Type 2 morning bloods goal ??

    Probably the same for me. Mine are in the 6s at the moment. They were in the 7s three weeks ago so that's progress.

    Type 2s: What have you eaten today?

    Thanks for the reply Contralto. I've been at this a little longer now and my base numbers are coming down as is my weight. To be honest most of what I ate that day is ok for me as it doesn't lead to either high jumps in blood sugar or sustained highs so I am fine with it now I have a little more...

    6.8 at 07:30. I've forgotten to bring my meter to the office so I guess I won't be testing today. D'oh!

    0 lost for me today :( Still, it's only week 3 of LCHF and this week has been more "carby" than I would have liked (TOTM and all that). Back to the drawing board next week.

    6.5 at 07:40 this morning. [Up to 7.1 after breakfast but back down to 6.1 now 3 hours after lunch]. That'll do for me [for now]

    Undiagnosed diabetes

    I was disgnosed relatively young (39. I'm 41 now) but had been putting on more and more weight over the previous 4 years which I found difficult to lose (I made a few successful attempts but nothing I could stick to). Eventually I was feeling constantly tired (mainly in the morning) and was...

    Type 2s: What was your fasting blood glucose in a morning? (very low chat level)

    Yeah. I know that before I wouldn't have called a wholemeal roll, 2 slices of high protein bread and 2 squares of 70% chocolate "living a little" but times have changed. LOL. We do what we can when we can. :)

    Type 2s: What was your fasting blood glucose in a morning? (very low chat level)

    6.4 at 07:30 this morning. I'm pleased with that as I had a bit too much bread (albeit wholemeal) yesterday as well as 2 squares of 70% chocolate [PMT you understand :( ]

    Getting back on board

    Hi Xarina I'm no expert (diagnosed Aug 2015, initial success then head in the sand, now making some progress) but I experienced some of what you are talking about: crazy eating, out of control. My Hbac1 was not quite as high but I felt really bad about the lack of "willpower" and "control" and...
