You are all so lovely! Thanks so much for the well wishes in my new role as a great aunt. I get to meet the little sweetheart in just a few hours…..they will be staying here overnight. Today was 5.7. Sadly I ate some almond flour crackers today and spiked my sugars….and then my body taught me...

She’s here…a whopping 9 lb 4 oz girl. Labour went very quick and the hubby made it with less than 45 minutes to spare. I must say my niece handled that labour like a darn champ! No meds and calm as can be…

6.3 again. Seems like even half an apple with almond butter is not a great thing for me. Niece went into labour last night, she’s still here and likely won’t be ready for the hospital for some time yet. Her husband is on his way, a five hour drive away. Hoping he makes it here on time to...

6.3 today. A cooler summer day, I’m pretty happy about that. Took niece to hospital today, no sign of labour yet. They gave her a good checkup and sent her home….wont induce until 41 weeks, 3 days….she could be here awhile. Took her for a nice walk around the ponds in hopes it would help her.

5.9 today, meter reading. CGM has expired….i miss it but likely won’t put another on for a while, way too pricey….but I do have three here at home. Saving them for my trip to Japan. The sun is out today, it’s lovely. The gardens are amazing…love this time of year.

Good luck. My doctor was well versed about Berberine and had no issues with me trying it. It’s readily available at Costco here in Canada. I will tell you though that I took me several trials for my body to get used to the full dosage (three 500mg pills). It did irritate my intestines, if...

6.0 as soon as I woke, a few minutes later it was 5.0 and going down….this is on my Dexcom. Went to the gym, as usual, and had a great workout. The sun is out today so I’m heading to the garden once I’m finished my iced coffee.

5.7 today. It’s rainy here, so lovely! Took my very pregnant niece shopping today, nice to get out and have a chat with her. She’s due Friday and hope that baby comes by then….I'm sure she’d rather be home than living in my basement.

5.4 this morning……actually upon waking it was 6.1….i generally check my sugar after I get the coffee set up, bed made and table set, that’s where the 5.4 came in. So my sugar goes down ten minutes after getting out of bed. I stay at 6 and a bit higher all night.. Hot today, blah. I will...

5.5 this morning. Looking at my graph was disappointing, a steady 6 all night…I sure would love to see lower numbers. You guys are getting some heat! It’s hot here, but normal for us. Stay cool

This is my personal experience and I am NOT suggesting a thing….this is a N=1 experiment. My pancreas is damaged and I just sit in the pre diabetic range…low carb keeps me there but doesn’t make it great. I have never taken drugs for diabetes or cholesterol (my ldl was quite high but HDL and...

5 point Something….i really need to pay more attention…. Sunny and hot today, windy too. My garden is spectacular, the plants are loving the rain and sun mix…did some short jogs on the treadmill today….and the lungs were ok (I have mild COPD). Weights too and lots of walking and gardening. My...

Better late than never. 5.5 today. Numbers were crazy yesterday, jumping all over the place for zero reason…do you hear that pancreas….zero reason! Happily today I’m a nice flat line.

5.8 today, a rainy dreary day….and I love it! We really needed the rain…gotta keep those fires away. Went to the gym but it was a struggle….just didn’t want to be there. Maybe it’s time for a day off. I want to eat bad things….must resist

Amazing, so happy your appointment was good! Best of luck with the new regime…..and sorry about the diagnosis.

I was annoyed yesterday as my sugar levels seemed higher than normal….about 6.5 all afternoon, weird spike after a carnivore supper and high before bed…high sixes. This is not my normal. Then today…what the heck…5.1 on Dexcom, 5.3 blood test. Today was also my test day to eat something for...

5.8 today. Both Dexcom and finger prick. Had a weird spike (minor) last night after having half a protein bar (1net carb). I don’t think I handle fake sugar well. In Canada we don’t label for net carb, but total carbs…and I reacted to that higher number. To get the net carbs I subtracted...

A sweet 5.3 this morning. Super happy with that! Did a hill walk and upper body weights at the gym this morning, and after lunch walke with hubby and did some gardening. A cloudy day today. The coyotes were on a rant last night, think they’re teaching the littles to hunt. Hubby found an...

Thanks. I exercise daily and have monitored forever( or so it seems) and usually before lunch I’m at 6 or less. No lactose…I just use butter in my coffee and collagen….so just fat and protein. That’s my breakfast. Think I’ll drink more water, I’m one of those people who never get thirsty...

5.7 today. Went to gym, a leg day and a good Japanese walk. Did some recycling and got some meat…home for lunch and my glucose is 6.9….seriously, what the heck! Time to put another Dexcom on to see what’s happening. Carbs are way less than ten a day…and zero this morning. The sun has...
