    Early to rise, early to test That way means the score is best My head is thick, my eyes are blurry I had too much wine. My tongue feels furry. Maybe that means my score is cheating Suppressed by the drink not the way of eating Right now, I can’t know, I’ve no way to fix I’ll just smile and...

    Hope you are OK A100. I remember when I first joined this forum you were welcoming, helpful, supportive and a little bit edgy and challenging (I liked that). I hope the forum can help you with your current challenges - please let us know if we can. Or just rant if you like. We’re listening.

    I'm stood here on the bathroom floor Lancet poised, its blood to draw It's such a tiresome daily chore But one, I fear, I can't ignore The meter's saying 6.4 It's not the most exciting score I have it several times before My record lately has been poor So I should be pleased that it's not more...

    There’s no accounting for taste Saskia. But thank you.

    What was your fasting blood glucose? (with some chat)

    I agree with your principle Ian. However, Boseley has taken a study about fibre and turned it into a headline about Low Carb. Which she has done for two reasons: i) to make it more controversial: conflict sells copy. ii) her default stance is anti low carb. Here is one of her previous...

    That article is written by Sarah Bosely who is actively biased against LCHF. It’s clearly garbage to equate fibre and carbs but she is using the WHO study to poke a stick at something she is opposed to. In an earlier article she has called low carb a cultish fad.

    Today's BG poem: 7.2. No rhyme, no reason Could be liver dump. Could be the season Could be chocolate, could be stress Should I be bothered, or not care less?

    @DJC3 - good luck with the scan There is an old saying: don't just focus on the wolf that is nearest the sledge, focus on the pack. So be happy about the Hba1c - not what you want but perfectly OK. Re Cholesterol - the arguments are polarised on the statin cholesterol debate, but remember it...

    6.5 today, which I posting closer to tomorrow's reading than today's. Not sulking too much about that. I have returned my avatar back to my previous fish. He cheers me up and I was missing his smiley face everyday.

    I like all of that - maybe not Bowie so much I would add Billy Joel, Crowded House, KT Tunstall, Fleetwood Mac, REM and Passenger- that would keep me going. Hope the journey is going well.
