We bought ourselves a couple of torches - helps light the way (and avoid dog dirt) ... so have continued to walk during the evening (so far anyway) ...

I had to reduce my Metformin for that reason too - probably because my BS results were better. Have your results changed much?

Hi @MNawaz2 I usually start to go hypo when I get to about 4 - but last night my other half went hypo and he was at 3.25 .. everyone is different. But is sure as hell is scary - best thing to do is to carry glucose tablets with you at all times. Are you on any medication that will make you go...

I haven't posted for a while because of a silly reason .... I have those digital scales and used to stand on them twice before I even looked at the weight - because we dont have a hard floor and I thought the scales would settle by the time I stood on them the second time. Turns out that the...

Hope you are OK - so many of us here now hoping you will respond to us today. Sending you warm wishes and loads of virtual hugs .....

6.2 for me (late up) ... fasting today (5:2) and swimming soon ... all good :)

I wouldn't worry yet about having a hypo ... but for me I start to go hypo when in the 4's .. perhaps start a thread outside this one where a lot of people will be able to respond properly .... :) ...

No reason for there to be anything wrong with you ... but you know what, if there is, you find out what it is and start working out how to do something about it .... just like you did with diabetes.

Still doing our daily walks - but with the darker nights, we have bought torches ....horahhh so walking after work can continue. Still doing aqua aerobics 2x per week, but finding it hard to get any extra gym sessions in for some reason ..... (probably cos I am trying to finish a quilt I am...

7.7 this morning (probably the chips last night and the sniffles now) .... oh and the dawn thing as I was up late. Have a good weekend all ...

Did your Kiev have breadcrumbs? For some reason that sends my levels really high - I cannot even have fishfingers these days and I used to love a fishfinger sarnie .... You just never know what is going to send your sugars up - its all trial and error x

5.7 - fast day yesterday :)

Great results - your hard work paying off ....

Not many GPs in the UK will issue strips etc for those T2s controlled with diet and exercise No - scrap that - I would not have thought any GPs would provide them (NHS) ... The solution is to buy your own strips and lancets ...

The health reason is why we bought it in the first place - I think I will buy just a normal hoola hoop and try with that (the weighted one has been put back in its box as I am just so rubbish with it)

I was/am pretty much the same. Since being diagnosed in April with a BS of 141% ... changed diet and lifestyle and did not lose any weight despite my bloods being drastically reduced - I then found out I had thyroid issues. I have just started the 5:2 which finally seems to be working - so you...

Week one done ... I actually lost 1.5 kg (first weight loss since April despite changing eating habits). Not only did I lose weight, but my blood levels have been stable despite less Metformin. Continuing this - Week 2 starts today.

7.3 this morning Its a 5:2 fasting day (no meds) today - aqua aerobics later :)

yay ..... finally lost some weight - a mix of the 5:2 and levo ?? At the start of the week I was 84.3 and this morning 82.3 ... so 2kg off (4.4 lbs) ... My first tartge is to get under 80 kgs .. then continue with reducing targets every 5 kg

5.8 this morning .... (no meds taken at all yesterday as it was a 5:2 fasting day) ...
