Could do with running along the beautiful scenery depicted above. Silly question but how do you attach photos?

Hit the green 'upload a file' button below the reply box and browse for the file/photo you want to upload. For photos you should reduce the image size to no more than 800 pixels across the page otherwise it's too big (alternatively upload as thumbnail - you are given that option).

6.3 this morning.....the kids and I spent most of yesterday visiting my parents, so menu was't as friendly as it could be. Over all, think I'm done with the holiday food now...... :)

It was 5.2, but after a bit of exercise, and a glass of mulled wine, it was 6.8.

Looks like a silent prayer that Santa will fill the empty space ;)

Both kids were quite pleased with the results next morning. I feel that most parents strive to out do what they experienced as a child.

That's probably true....glad my kids, although doing same, don't do it on credit as some do - her partner, who works(worked) for City Link parcel delivery service found out they'd gone bust yesterday..... :(

Thanks for posting that. I didn't realize it was so easy.

My third day of high morning readings 6.5 to 6.8. I don't think it is my food as that hadn't been too bad. I am suffering from the worst cold I have had for several years, involving multiple wakings with coughing through the night.

I did think low gi carbs after testing, hence the check of ingredients but couldn't suss out where carbs were coming from.... Quite understand where you're coming from. Quinoa flour is high carb, low gi. Anyone recommend a good gi carbs book? Hated carbs & cals, told me nothing at all. Two books I got give good info except no gi. Want a book rather than Weblinks so can keep in kit Chen

GI GL counter by Winnie Chan, can get it on ebay for less than £4.small enough to carry around & full of info.

Colds and coughs etc do affect readings as your body is busy fighting the virus. Hope you get better soon.

Sounds good let us know what its like. I watch the GI content of food and limit sweet stuff, processed food and fried food because of genetic condition effecting how muscles body produces energy i am only able to cut carbs a bit maybe min 90 - 120g a day when i am well. So lchf route is no good newcastle route i tweak but not doing to bad with my own diet and exierice i can do:)
