Here I come - hanging my head in shame...15.1

I went down the bad aisles in Sainsburys yesterday and found crisps, cake and white bread rolls in my trolley.

I wasn't going to say anything but I feel if I do tell that it might make me stop this self destruct binging that I am on

After a bad night starting with 14.9 without insulin I eventually slept off restfully this morning. After 5 hours sleep my fbg is 5.7 I guess!
Sorry dn but I'm going back to supper injection. I have a family to look after.

8.6 - like @Serena51 I was tempted by crisps yesterday - rather a lot of them - on the naughty step
Do you like pork scratchings? When the boys are having the occasional bag of crisps I have a small bag of them instead. Much better on your bgs. You can get pork crunch too but check the back of packet for less than 10g per 100g of carbs including fibre. They are a life saver on times of changing diet. You're allowed fat.
