    Few days where can't eat

    Thanks, as I said I have enough padding to keep me going for a while lol, and I've seen some stuff online saying about the extended release form so I might ask for that, if this doesn't pass. I'm drinking enough and readings aren't too low so not worried on that front just that as I work for...

    Few days where can't eat

I started on 28th Nov and for wee while was fine, little upset but nothing much, and I found here (thank goodness) and started low carb. I'd just kinda...

    Anyone tried this?

    When I went into Lidl the guy was just finishing up restocking the rolls and for the first time in my life I was using tongs to search for the smallest ones! I've weighed and heaviest was 95g and lightest was 78 g which I can live with.

    Wine for Xmas day

    Enjoy! I'm going to get a wee selection and try them, the good thing is that the daughter who always steals my wine will be having dinner with us (and staying over) so if I don't like any I'm sure she'll drink them!

    Wine for Xmas day

    Sounds wonderful! I've passed on some recipes for cakes and stuff to older daughter who bakes - afraid me and baking don't quite go hand in hand lol!

    Wine for Xmas day

    We have a costco card courtesy of son-in-law and I would buy a case or two of something nice but then middle daughter would swipe a bottle every time she was over so now if I get anything hubs has to hide it out in his 'man cave' so she doesn't get her hands on it! I was quite surprised at the...

    Anyone tried this?

    Such a thing as low carb bread or snack bars?

    I used to eat Burgen all the time before but 11g is high when trying to stay under 20g for a full day, it's worth it for a wee treat now and then x

    Type 2 How often and when to test and evening snack

    great! I've not seen a high reading since meter arrived, but been on the low carb so I assume it's because of that and as I've actually lost weight I'm sticking with it!

    Thanks goodness, that was the one thing she nearly had me running for the hills scared! Quick question, if my bg is 3.9 just as I'm going to bed is that ok?

    Type 2 How often and when to test and evening snack

    Aaah the one thing nurse told me to watch out for was hypos, I guess the metaformin can cause that, my BG has been not bad last few days (since I got my new toy aka meter lol, but it was quite low a couple of times under 4
