Hi. Just wondered what your blood sugar tested like during the day
Valsal
 
Eating toast, with milk but this time is not taken anything because of the busy schedule of the office. I am utilizing the sort 2 string however I have and do what I call a medium to low carb diet .. I just thrice it myself as required ...
 
Coffee with cream A small piece of cheese for breakfast. Did 30 minutes exercise.

Lunch was eggs scrambled with onions and lots of fresh tomatoes, a bowl of green salad
 
Woke up, strong coffee & pint of warm water, 4 mile run then the same when I got home (trying to stave off hunger, works well most days)
3x sausages with two fried eggs, doesnt affect my BS that much which is fab as I love the english breakfast elements.
A few slices of cheese in the day, and one jalapeno/meat wrap with some cheese for tea. I think thats me done for today. BS just over 5.5 each time I check, which is good for me.
 
Good to see you and read your food @bkr and @angustia. Woke 3.30 but stayed in bed until 5.00 so tea for B early on; cocoa @12.20 then dog walk. L @ 2.30 was mackerel and avocado salad; Did nibble some red fox cheese and the free corned beef we were given by W.......; Evening was celagne (celeriac lasagne) best one yet with basil and oregano passata - all food ok.
 
Thanks Ian :)

Your day sounds good, thats an early one - I'd be flagging if I was woken at 3.30. Fair play for getting up at 5.00, I imagine you'll be shattered now :)

I ran at 7.30, the cool air does give me a boost, wouldnt be the same without the coffee tho. Calmomile tea, and a few coffees hydrate & keep my head clear enough until teatime around 18.00.
The evenings are my weakest time, the little voice wants sweet things but thats usually nearer to bed & I have to ignore it although its hard sometimes!

Some nice sounding food options in there, will relay to my wife. What cocoa do you use if you dont mind my asking please?
