6.1 and a start back to healthier eating.

Well Christmas dinner all eaten and done. 5.3 before and 8.3 2hrs after but forgot to take my metformin till an hour after I had eaten. Still reasonably happy with that though.

Well I had my Chinese Banquet last night with my lads. Had a few Coke Zeros to wash it down ( I was driving ) had a few after dinner chocolates I know it was naughty. Bloods before 5.6 and 2hrs after it was 7.3 so quiet pleased with that. Let's hope Xmas dinner is as forgiving to me Merry...

Well yesterday was my last day in work due to a screw up with my holidays that I was told I had to take before the end of the year. I was quite pleased with my self as temptation was all around me in the workshop as there were boxes of biscuits and tubs of sweets all around me that had been...

Morning all 5.9 @ 8:45 am

6.1 for me @ 9:30am Noticed when I am on earlies and up at 5am I do them just as I leave home at 5:30 and there always in the 5.3 - 5.5 range. Funny what a few extra hours in bed fasting does to them.

@DeejayR yeah I hear you I have made my Freezer sound like a Carb Den of iniquity lol. It's not that bad just had a few pizza's a quiche a few pies to get rid of. There all gone and now being a good boy :)

Hi @ Wiseowl_123 I am in a similar boat recently diagnosed late September and don't see my nurse till the 25 Jan for my next set of bloods. I have been following the LCHF diet and cut right down to no carbs or very little. I am also running my freezer down so I can restock with foods that are...

Hi ChefDee I am recently Diagnosed and still learning the ropes and ups and downs of being type2. I have begun to realise after reading forums, learning from experiance and what our DN's tell is a ballancing act, were all individuals and what works for one wont work for another, I beleive that...
