Morning all, its the weekend, yay. Oh hang on, I am retired, everyday is the weekend for me. Wahoo.

@dax6662 it is a marathon not a sprint. I fall off the wagon far too often as well. Like last night.

8.2 This morning, pesky Prosecco.

Good Morning! 4.8 at 0600 today.
I've only been in the 4s twice before this year. Might be because I've changed the cassette in my Accu Chek Mobile.

I measured 5.6, which is higher than usual. I had some low-carb-ish treats yesterday, but if this reading is higher because of them, they were worth it :hungry: These were a baked cheesecake with nut crust and some gelatin ******* with mango and coconut :D

Morning, well for the first time in two weeks of testing, my bg just now was:

8.2

Not low y any means, but previous morning readings have indicated 11, 12 and 13.

Plus, considering I had the finest pizza and garlic wheel from Waitrose last night (late home as I visit Mum every night after work), my son and I shared the both between us. Plus I had 6 very small squares of Cadbury fruit and night and 3 squares of my son's cadbury choc which had daim bar bits in it. Not the way to go as I had fish and chips the night before, 2 bad days. But that's how it is.

I don't know how it turns out low (for me) following that meal.

6,1 this morning at 9:30am.

Quite happy with that after a boozy red-wine afternoon yesterday.

A week on the LCHF diet plus a lot more exercise seems to be working for me.
