[QUOTE="pavlosn, post: 1536554, member: 22572"] Woke up to 5,9 mmol (107ng) this morning. After going to bed at 5,7 mmol (102mg) last night I was hoping to see my first sub 100 mg fasting count but this does not really spoil my mood. Last night was a friend's birthday, an old classmates and honestly I can not remember when I last had such a good time - and all without driving a drop of alcohol. We were invited to their summer house, an old stone built affair in a sleepy village up in the mountains about a forty five minutes drive away from Nicosia. The village's current population is nine people!
