I'm ok with beetroot -I guess it depends on the quantities eaten at a sitting. I only have a couple slices.

Bit high for my liking but I'm full of cold and trying to see what I'm like off the metformin. It seems at best to reduce my morning fasting by .5 so I'm hoping I can peddle my way to lower post and pre lunch figures in future.
 
I've had a disaster this lunch time. We were having a fry up. Been doing the weekly shop this morning, but forgot the bacon and Black Farmers sausages. Ended up having 2 eggs, tomato, a pile of mushrooms, half slice fried bread (all these are normal and OK for me), but ended up replacing the bacon and sausage with my usual portion of 6 chips. Sadly, the bread and chips together in the same meal were disastrous, especially as I started high at 6.0 due to rushing about in the shops. 8.1 at an hour. Waiting now to see with fingers crossed if it returns to base at 2 hours.
