Woke up to a BG of 5.9 mmol/L this a.m.

3km run, BG remained the same afterwords. Very cold -6ºC.

2 fried eggs for breakfast. No toast.

I think I'm going to start logging my food again on MFP. Another pair of running tights are starting to creep down. Will hem the waist band. Already hemmed two other running tights.

Spicy food which is too hot. Nasty people who have no idea on your life journey but feel the need to comment and be cruel.

Woke up to a BG of 5.8 mmol/L post very nippy 3km run before breakfast. (poached eggs for breakfast.)

My BG seems to be upticking since I started running again. Maybe it's stored in my liver glycogen being reconverted. My former MD implied as much a ways back. Anyway, it's my BMI that's the truth teller.

(no late night eating last night.)

A bit of shock as I had a late dinner, too much haddock and 500mls of 5% beer, which I never do.
