After The Lord Mayors Show how do I stay motivated...thats the real test I guess...I'm sO impressed with those of you who still keep going on the forum after you have hit your target numbers...
5.7....was VERY naughty yesterday....
The price of Paradise4.3 for me this morning. I have still been running a little higher than usual over the past few days. Yesterday I could understand it, based on a particularly frustrating turn of events that sent me scuttling across the county to pick up a replacement power supply for something in this house, that we access every day from overseas. So, although extremely frustrating, if it had to fail, it was better failing yesterday than in a week’s time.
Today I am waiting for a courier to arrive with something else we had to order at the last minute, then I really do have to start gathering my “stuff” together for packing. This place looks like a bomb has hit, and I detest this lack of order, but it’ll come together quickly later today (I hope!).
Tomorrow is the bonkers mixture of baking (my OH’s brother worships at the joint temples of my lemon drizzle cake and cheese scones, and I always, always do a batch of both when I see him), and general tidying up/tip trip/checking my lists and lists of lists.
Thankfully, things are falling into place, and now I just can’t wait to feel the sun on my bones, the sand between my toes and begin my daily swimming regime I so enjoy.
Have a great day playmates.

Of course as ever you are right @Bluetit1802 I do enjoy helping others to. In fact my GP texted me yesterday and asked if I could use me as an example. I REALLY do want others to benefit. Thanks.I think you partly answered your own question there! Hitting target numbers is one thing. Maintaining them is another. Helping others reach their targets is a great motivator too, and stories like yours are inspirational to those still struggling to reach their goals, so stay with us. There is still so much to learn, with no better place than this forum to do this.
@AndBreathe thats what I love about this site and great people like you. I had a small portion of rice and cheickn with a few potatoes. The Very Naughty bit was a slice of lemon cake of the sort I haven't touched for 3 months. That for me is VERY naughty. I said to my wife thats it now I have had my treat for the year. MANY THANKS!Clearly, I have no idea what "VERY naughty" means to you, but you're sailing pretty close to the wind there:

I know you've had an excellent set of results, but it might be kinder to your system to let it settle there for a little while, before testing the potentially revolving door?
(Clearly none of my business, just concerned, bearing in mind how much you hated where you were before.)
I guess we can be Very Naughty sometimes....I must admit I was always outside my headmasters room in my secondary school days...Not you again??? then I used to turn it around with half decent academic performances...redemptionI was also very naughty yesterday lunch time - up in the 7's and 8's. Thankfully redeemed again at tea time.

I've experienced that. ONE or t'other but NOT BOTH. Altho diff foods it all comes down to portion size again doesn't it, portion of carbsRice, spuds and cake all in one meal? Tut tut. I know from experience I can only manage one portion of major carbs at a time. That was why I was very high after lunch yesterday - I mixed spuds with bread. One or the other I handle well, both together is a no-no.
7.4 Bedtime
7.1 Fasting
I've had a few fasting 7's this week and am not happy. I can't see I'm doing/eating anything different except I began taking Bio Omega capsules a week ago. Has anyone else noticed a rise in bs due to fish oil supplements?
Phew! At least you know why but be careful about remembering your meds xOho, 11.6!!! Then realised I forgot to take my insulin again last night :headbang: at least I don't have work to bother meths week so I can focus on getting back in a routine
