When people who know nothing about the LCHF diet tell me I'm killing myself being on it. I was killing myself not being on it!
Ist test of the day 6.15am 7.8
Breakfast: Avocado and acup of black tea
Short cycle to work.
Test 8.30am 10.2
Test before tea break at 9.30am 9.2
Snack: 6 raspberries, 6 blueberries, 2 tablespoons double cream 2 Greek yogurt
11.30am 9.4
lunch 11.30 - 12.00 : 10 small prawns in a chilli dip, small piece of brie, 2 slices parma ham, 4 cherry toms, lettuce leaves
14.00 test 8.9
Left work at 2.35 and cycled the long way home
15.10 test 6.0

Bottle of iced water with lemon and lime slices through the day.

Getting better, pity I can't celebrate with a danish pastry! Will have a cup of black tea instead ;)
 
Compared the reading with yesterday's at roughly the same times and every test result was down. Showed the results to my husband and said 'That's why I test' and now at last I think he's starting to understand why I'm testing.

Beryl - when it comes to reducing blood scores, some people's slide down, like a skiing down a slope until they even out, and others notch down, like going down stairs. I was one of the latter.

So, if you find you plateau a bit for a while, don't be disheartened, you could just be in the latter group, eith me. :)

Well done.
