Cheers Jim, have ordered something similar, in a rather fetching blue... One must retain ones style...lol.

Yes, it is a bit isn't it..lol. Thankfully...and I say that somewhat dubiously, I am at work surrounded by cupcakes!...

No offence taken Jim. It’s where I live. They don’t cater for long tall people who are oddly shaped! Edited by mod.

Shouldn’t be. I’ve only had the monitor 6 weeks and there’s no battery warning light on. I’m hitting the fruit hard. Thank you

1.7! Checked again and got “LO” as my reading! Eek...off to eat lots of fruit, shouldn’t be this low!

Do you know Jim, you are absolutely right!. Been looking for one but the only ones round here are so wide I can’t fit them through the loops on my jeans! Will have to check online...as usual. Cheers!.

Very kind of you, thanks. I’m one of those strangely shaped people when it comes to clothes. Long body, broad shoulders, very long arms. So need XL or XXL, depending upon make, for sleeve length but then L for body width and XXL fit for length. My other half goes loopy at my clothes being...

That’s very kind, thank you.

Well I had a sweet tooth so that’s not helped. Potatoes, mash, chips, a biscuit with my tea, a pizza, a fish finger sandwich...lots of things.

I don’t need a belt, I just need a series of holes lol. I think I have a depressive personality. Never really happy no matter what I do...apart from travel of course. And with Anhedonia, that loss of pleasure in everything does affect appetite as well.

Ah Jim, every pill I take lists depression as a possible side effect. I’ve been depressed for longer than I’ve been on anything but yes I am sure you are right that statins play their own role in their own way.

I just think that the blandness of the food might be contributing to my loss of interest. I’ve been on Metformin for years and my taste is sometimes okay and then other times not. But yes, sensory issues abound.

I’m on Metformin and Atorvastatin and have had very few issues. Just emphasises how different we all are when it comes to drugs and side effects. I was suicidal last year, stockpiling pills...still am to a degree, but that was circumstances rather than the drugs which I’ve been on for years...

Thank you. Unfortunately I am very uncomfortable with spice. My better half finds it most amusing that I can travel to India and avoid eating anything spicy whilst I ma there. I just don't cope with the flavours. But onion and pepper are fine.

Its the only thing that is. Thanks.

Quirigua - Mayan site in Guatemala.

I'm on them and have had absolutely no bad side effects. Well, none obvious amongst the myriad that I get from medication in general. I think its personal choice. You can be educated by what others say but every person is an individual and what helps one person may hinder another or vice versa.

Diet coke, the occasional Pepsi Max. I used to drink quite a lot of full sugar soft drinks but gave them up years ago for health reasons. At work I drink water with a bit of no added sugar squash in it. Not much but enough to get the taste of the water (which I cant stomach) out of my mouth.

Yes we have Quorn in the freezer. Quite a few burgers. Read somewhere they were quite high in carbs so have avoided eating them. Perhaps I should revisit...after we eat the 12 pork chops sitting in our fridge. I just feel run down and overwhelmed again. Don't see progress because its so...

Thank you. I'm just overwhelmed by lows from all sides right now. At home, at work and in my diet.
