Bfg of 7.4 this morning. UPDATE: Just back from an hour birding and it's now down to 5.8

If you've been taking exercise it maybe your body is building muscle. Even if not, sometimes your body needs to stabilise to move forward. Either way, we'll done you.

Only managed to lose 1lb but it's in the right direction.

Morning BG of 6.7 - much better and further evidence how my afternoon birding session helped my BGs. Yesterday's "haul" was pretty extraordinary, including glossy ibis, spoonbill, cattle egret, lesser scaup, eider as well as all the usual culprits

Oh doctor, if you insist!! I just found out that avocet have just arrived locally. Very seldom seen in North Devon, so I'm off to find it, along with glossy ibis and a possible spoonbill. Wish me luck

Morning all. A bfg of 7.9 for me today - a little odd as I really watched my food intake. Oh well, the joys of diabetes eh.

An fbg if 7.7 for me. Off to the audiology dept at the hospital today door an MOT on my ears

Morning all - an fbg of 7.1 today.

It was marvellous with highlights of spoonbill, glossy ibis, curlew, lapwing and snipe. All in all, a great day

G'morning peeps - a tad bracing here in not so sunny Devon. Fasting BGs of 6.8 - it seems living off salads is agreeing with me. Off later today to do a little grocery shopping and probably an espresso with my wife in my favourite coffee shop.

Probably like many on here, I regularly fingerprick test before and after meals. Well, as some if you know, on Nov 30th last year I had my last Hba1c test and it hit 101 - I was horrified and knew unless I made some radical changes I was certain to be prescribed medication. So I dramatically...

Morning chums. An fbg of 8.0 today but pretty confident that will drop heavily today as I'm out birding all day with my son. Lots of walking so I'm confident that will help. Its a glorious day albeit freezing (thank G-d for thermals) and at dawn the mist over the estuary looked heavenly as I...

Well yesterday I tried to keep the carbs really low and it kinda paid off as my fbg was 7.5 - better, but far from good.

Fbg of 8.0 today

15st 12lb for me today - no loss, but no gain either and given our Christmas celebrations only ended yesterday I am happy. Last year I put on 10lb in the same period!!!

I cannot speak for the bread but I have tried lentil pancakes and pizza bases - both didn't affect me too badly. On the plus side they have a similar(ish) texture albeit a little leathery. Against that (and no surprise here), you'll never guess what it tasted of? Yup, you're right - lentils!!

Hope all improves and you don't have to go to A&E. I had a couple of trips there last year - ghastly places!

Fbg of 8.1 today. Still running high despite reducing my carb intake, but I'm hoping that as I lose weight it will come down

Fbg of 8.4 this morning. Still running higher than I would like so doing a little exercise this pm

Fbg today was a worrying 8.4. I am really quite concerned as yesterday was really quite low carb and no naughties. I checked my weight and I'm the same as last Friday. A week ago my fbg's were in the low 7s. Any thoughts?
