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.

Hello from Montreal. My waking BG this a.m. is 4.9 mmol/L. (05:30 hrs, EST)

Late yesterday afternoon, I munched on a handful of crisps/potato chips and my BG shot up to 8.6! YIKES.
So it was Sauerkraut, Kimchi and chopped tomatoes for supper. BG dropped down to 5.8 late evening.

Yes, you're heading in the right direction @johnprysky.
It's not something that can be achieved overnight . Slow and steady wins the race.

Hello from a frosty Montreal. I woke to a BG of 6.2 mmol/L this a.m.
Piece of toast w/cream cheese and yogurt with apple sauce late last night... That did it.
