GOOD AFTERNOON/EVENING.

Oh it must have been such a lovely day with these little ones

Yes, we had a lot of fun, thanks, Kevin. I wish they'd go to sleep now, though - they're in there, 'shushing' each other, and I'm hanging!
 
@doolallylady - Karen, I wouldn't wish a Hypo on anybody. I usually get early warnings around 3.4 - 3.6 when I have a hot sweat and get a headache at the back of my head. I have to just stop whatever I am doing and eat something to stop it going further. But the 3 times that I have had them they scared me really bad. My legs buckled beneath me, I shook uncontrollably and thought/felt I was going to pass out. I have never had an Hypo when outside and I always carry glucose tablets on my person.
Enjoy your Bank Holiday and chat soon. William x
Meant to say: Daughter & Hubby were asked if they wanted to know what sex the Baby was going to be? And they said No! I always thought people want to know these days!

I love Greek yogurt! I eat it every day with a few crushed walnuts stirred in for breakfast. I also eat a few spoonfuls straight from the tub to satisfy any hunger pangs throughout the day. I think it's the texture which is so appealing, it feels like I'm eating extra-thick double cream. Lidls does a huge 1kg tub for £1.39 which is the best I've tasted and great value. And it's great for staving off hypos when my BG levels are low. Now I realise that I sound like an advert but I was answering another thread about yogurt and thought that some members might not know that you can eat it feely on lchf.
Tomorrow's post - eggs (only kidding !)
 
Good afternoon everyone. Flippin running and gym both felt tough today but I did it anyway. Salmon for lunch with nuts and seeds,straw Bs & rasp. Going to rest this afternoon

I worry about you @KevinPotts . You should never push your body too far. Gradual increase is always fine but please dont over push your system. Its ok to do less on days of feeling off.
 
I'm missing my protein. I need to have some veg cooked so stir-fry for tea. I'll always find veg something pushed on me, rather than a pleasure. I could easily live without it. Well for pleasure purposes anyway.
If I don't eat carbs, nor much protein either. All is left is veg/salad. Or and fat.
I can see why castor oil was given during the war. Ha ha
 
We can't be bothered cooking tonight, so off to the pub. I better be a good boy

I've had a lazy day. It is cool, grey and windy in London. I didn't do any walking today, I have been averaging around 25,000 steps a day for the last few weeks - I got some gel insoles to put in the running shoes I use for walking, which already have gel insoles. A double gel layer, so I hope to escape getting plantar fasciitis in my feet again.
I don't know what it is but I felt tired and low today. Maybe the lack of sun, or my hayfever, but after a good night's sleep and a lie in, I went back to bed at 1430 and had another couple of hours' sleep.
Feeling better now, and will put the beef joint and a couple of potatoes in the oven soon. I was supposed to have it yesterday, but didn't feel hungry.
 
Roast Chicken, Roast and Mashed Potatoes, Mixed Veg, Yorkies & Gravy for tea tonight

A beautiful day here
Hope you good folks have had a decent day
 
Hi everyone,

Hope you've all had a great day and readings are behaving themselves. Another lovely day here but cloudier than yesterday.

Just for the ladies: anyone else have a hubby/partner that goes shopping for something and looks at the price 1st BEFORE he decides whether he might like it or not? It drives me crazy. We went shopping for a pair of shoes for him this morning, we came back without them, as usual. I came back with 2 tops and some baps.

@liam1955

William, it's lovely that they are keeping the baby's sex as a surprise, although there's enough surprises without that!!! The only surprise that would be bigger is if the nurse said 'It's a puppy', lol.

Enjoy the evening folks, Karen xx

You lucky thing!! The only part of that meal I could eat without spiking my BG would be the chicken-not that I'm jealous or anything. Jeez that's the second time I've said that in 5 mins
 
Another lie in planned. I've been naughty and had half of a garlic baton.
Oh and forgot to mention @liam1955 . consultant want to see me. To take me off canagliglozin I bet. I'm on twice as much insulin but trying to reduce it slowly as I don't want my weight loss to seize.
I'm going to ask for metformin again. Unless they know a better drug for insulin resistance. I do feel abit messed about.
 
Half a garlic baton....what did your blood sugar do as a result of this cardinal sin?

Ooh you naughty girl Vicky! A loves the cheese batons from Sainsburys but I have to resist polishing off the leftovers, who knows what it would do to my BG levels!
 
I
Bet that baton was delicious! I fully intend to eat a large ice-cream today. High BG be da**ed!
 
Hello everybody. I'm back from my little break. We had a good time. The weather today does not seem to know its summer . It's very windy here. I hope everyone is having a good day. @liam1955 are there any caramac buttons left?
 
Hello @mo53 hope you had as lovely time, welcome back. We had a super day today temps between 22-26 deg with a cool gentle breeze from the sea. Largs was such a disappointment, so "busy" but Saltcoats was lovely, a quiet Victorian era seaside town. After my low-carb dinner of cold chicken and hard boiled egg I ate a large ice-cream cone with miniscule choc flake in @liam1955 honour (not a "slider" William)
On our way home now
