    Hbac1 results are in!

    Oh totally, don’t wanna think relax means eating junk , my weight is 3kgs lighter than last time- the term relax means I may have a curry with no rice but Bhaji and popadoms or carvery with one potato on Sunday, still strict 90% of the time

    Is it ok to cut back on testing?

    I agree but I’m more than happy with my low carb way of eating now I don’t see why I’d ever go back! I did steal 3 of my wife’s chips Saturday after a few drinks- felt so decadent [emoji51]

    Is it ok to cut back on testing?

    Curious to know how often people test ? Obviously testing has been key in learning about reactions to food etc and controlling what you eat , however...... I’ve learned my fasting can be anything from late 4s - 6s and what I eat doesn’t really make any difference My pre and post meals are...

    24hour fast

    So I’ve had to fast for a procedure in hospital [emoji30], having had nothing but water for 24 hours and only scrambled eggs the 24 hours before that I was worried my numbers were gonna go very low and maybe cause problems . Usually when I get home from work after a hard day I’m around 4.2-4.6...
