latest numbers

[hanadr]

Just got back from Nurse with my latest numbers. I had been worried that I'd been a bit lax. Now I know what I should be able to achieve if i really really stick to the rules.
Hb a1c 5.4% Hdl 1.9 Ldl 1.2
Trigs 0.6
Should be able to manage the 4s If I keep it up

WOW! if that's a 'lax' result maybe I should try being lax!! Am determined to join you on the 5% sofa next time though....

I discovereed Finn Crisp crispbread and went beyond one per meal several times. I have to be very tight on those carbs. or my BG goes up out of my personal target range. Those crispbreads crunch deliciously.

Well done Hana

I have recently bought another low carb veggie cookbook, there was a recipe for a kind of sesame based cracker in there, I could look it up...

I'm chuffed myself
but those 4s are still eluding me, without chemical assistance. I went to bed at 5.0 last night, quite hopeful, but of course, I was up to 5.4 again this morning. Then I thought that my 2 meters don't work quite the same. I have a Contour and a Freestyle Mini, one is plasma, one is whole blood, but I can never remember which is which, so I tried both( waste of a strip) they agreed on 5.4.
I've just ordered strips from Abbott £14.75 per pack and free delivery by first class post. Good customer care from Abbott. I don't know if that includeds VAT, but they are sending a VAT form. They have my details and my meter's number on record. The young female voice asked me immediately if I need new batteries too. That's what I call service!
