Maglil55. i was wondering too, where is Chook?

This morning it measured 6.7 after 6.3 last night. Grrr

Ok thanks jiraak. That makes more sense!

That can’t be right- 1 truffle 56.5 g ???

Banana or apple? Both ‘healthy’ snacks.

@PenguinMum. The trouble is that medical care seems to be a case of of trying to solve existing conditions and not preventing the ones that are obviously round the corner. Our insurance will pay to cure our illnesses but not to prevent them. We’re still waiting to see whether they are going to...

Good heavens gennepher. That was an eye opener for you. I hope he’s doing better now. My gp didn’t think I needed to keep testing regularly after the initial few weeks to see how it goes. It seems to be a widespread attitude- which we will just have to prove wrong!!

Good luck Fbdwheelie. Hope it’s not too hard and that it works for you.

A mattress day can be a very good thing - with everything around you that makes life worthwhile. Cat, books, music, lots to drink and maybe some nibbles if you fancy them. Lots of pillows too - somehow two are not enough for lounging. Have a lovely day!

I’ll post pics of the ice cream when it’s made. :))

Confused, last night was 6.3 and this morning was 7. I suppose my liver took pity on the night of tossing and turning, when I finally got up at about 5, but I really wish it wouldn’t bother. On the good side I made yoghurt in the instant pot over night (only 9 hours) and it looks amazing. It’s...

Yes please. I’ll have to find it on line if possible.

I’ve only recently realised that there was a difference. Naturally perspicacious.

Thanks for that DCUK Mod. I mixed up some milk with whey and yoghurt and set the pot to go for 9 hours. The original time was 8 which didn’t seem enough so I increased it. Perhaps I’ll put it on for a few extra hours in the morning. The dog is sleeping in the kitchen so I don’t want to disturb...

@DJC3 sorry to hear that you were unwell. Hope it passes quickly. Today Tea Cwc Lunch nuts. 2 slices LC bread with cheese- gouda and blue cheese. Yoghurt and berries. Nearly dinner I was v hungry so ate 2 baby bels. Dinner roasted chicken leg/thigh plus roasted veg. More yoghurt and berries...

Happy birthday Annb

I was thinking of making yoghurt in my instant pot. I think my current yoghurt maker is heating too hot, and the resulting yoghurt is too runny. I usually buy LL lactose free milk because there’s hardly any fresh version here, and if there is it’s expensive. I was looking at the IP yoghurt...

I’m not sure what’s better, sometimes bad advice or not much at all. I don’t have the kind of ‘back-up’ here with diabetes clinics, d nurse etc that appears to be offered in the uk. I do have a supportive gp, but although I would class her as one of the really good gps, especially with...

So two cups of tea (with milk - it has to be) I’ve finally tested. 6.7. Hmmm. Aggravation could well be included in that number, especially the battle to cut the blasted batteries out of their sealed-in safety. :-/
