Hi all. Early night and great sleep gave me a waking 5.7mmol. It's gone up to 8.9mmol now, before I eat breakfast...... Hope everyone has a lovely day.....

5.7 after another early to bed night. Seems to have a huge impact having undisturbed sleep Get well soon Flonvic.....

Yes thx Aylalake. Shocked when I saw that. I've never come close to a reading so low in the past. It's smashed my previous lowest BG reading. The tummy upset cleared up quickly and it will be interesting, to see where it leads tomorrow morning. Sincerely hope readings remain in single figures.

Hope headache has faded and gone flonvic. Tummy upset and skipped meals yesterday, given a 4.8mmol reading on waking today.

Bit of a tummy upset, had me skipping afternoon/evening food and that's given a reading of 4.8mmol on awakening. It's gone up to 13.6mmol 2 hours post breakfast, but I'm sure reading will lower again as the day wears away. Saw some smashing readings today, so well done everybody.

A pound at a time does the trick. Well done for taking the steps needed to low carb etc. Give yourself a pat on the back, for each day you stay on track. Sending you the very best wishes to succeed.

So sorry to hear of your cramps. I know how awful they are. I had a similar night to yours, just two nights ago. Soon as legs are raised, cramping starts and sleep has very little chance of happening. I get burning feeling and badly bruised type feeling in feet as well as cramps in toes and...

Ty for the 'sweet' tip. Its another avenue to try and may keep me on the straight and narrow. Well done for your five club reading and resultant buoyant mood. I've noticed too, a good reading has a positive effect. Think I need to spend more time looking at recipes. It would seem all I need...

Off to the supermarket today and will find the 100% cocoa chocolate. I can't wait to give it a try, next time I hanker after a sweet fix. Thanks for the tips. Looks like I'm going to have to ditch the bananas, the go to fix I love, following advice from Estragon and Living Lightly.

An early to bed followed by first good sleep in days gives me an 8.4 mmol reading on waking at 5.15 am. Happy with that. Now the challenge for the day is keeping the readings on the low side, with no daft readings in the twenties mmol. Ahh coffee ...... Best drink of the day is the first and I...

I'm still learning. Banana seems to be a problem for many, so I'll have to go extra careful and I need to do a shop and buy a little of the high cocoa chocolate for a time when I feel it's warranted. I was punished last night for my deeds...... was awake with foot cramps, well mainly in my toes...

I had a Mars bar and a banana last night ( been struggling with cravings last few days)...... yeah it raised blood sugar right up, but things back to normal today n I'm behaving I think .... Had cheese n bacon omelette earlier and have chicken and veggies planned for later today. Greek yoghurt...

You eating out anywhere nice next Tuesday?

Hi all. Sticky 10.3 for me today. Was 22.9 after giving in to bad choices last night, Have to be content with this mornings result. Wishing you all a good day .

9.7 this morning after a night resisting the temptation to eat and fighting cravings......

Thx for advice and yes bread is a killer for spikes. Blood Glucose on the way down now and is currently 12.2 mmol and heading further downwards......

No bed for me as my son was poorly and I was at Royal Stoke Hospital all night. Best news is, my son is fine. Called in at Macdonald's on way home this morning driving my son back and all I can say is ouch. Only just back home and tested @ 19.6 mmol. Thank you sausage & egg muffin.... Lovely...

Oh , you can tell I'm new to this. I've not heard of erythrotol until you mentioned it. must be worth a test run.....Thanks for the tip. Up until now, the best artificial sweetener that suits me, is one I get from Lidl. It's the next big step I suppose is discarding the honey & sugar...

Wow all these tips are great and it's nice to know I'm not on my own, with cravings at stupid o clock in the early hours, or very late night munchies needs or wants. I'm a swine for early hour strong but creamy coffees, and I often can't resist a spoon of honey or sugar ..... I stare with guilt...
