10.0 - neeeeearly in the single figures!! I am starting to cultivate a routine, where I have white coffee with sweetener for breakfast and low carb shake for lunch. Dinner is where I relax the rules a bit. I had salmon with lettuce, pepper and tomato salad, and a tablespoon of fried potato...

So far I've had a white coffee for break fast and a low carb shake for lunch. Finding out my HbA1C result (65 or 8.1%) today has put me off dinner - I'll just hide in a dark corner and have a little cry.
