As I sit here with the brasso polishing my halo I would just like to say that whilst all around me were eating their chippy lunches today I sat there with my 3 bean salad. Unusually my bs was 6.1 pre lunch (normally in the 5s midday) then down to 5.3 2hrs post lunch. work that one out, had the same brekky as always.

Phew, sorry guys, just "likes" to your posts. No replies. You've been busy - 85 posts today. 5.7 this morning but late night snack of leftover butternut squash with cheese followed by sugar free choc orange bar. All gone now tho...hadn't been eating full bars til u tried the orange one. Sausages chips and gravy for tea then out to show so no post meal testing. Normal service resumes tomorrow breakfast
 
5.4 today and been to see the GP for my latest HbA1c results. From a eye-watering (literally) 102 in August 2014 the latest result was 39! Been testing for two months and my average in that time across all testing has been 5.2 - pretty pleased with that

Dentist as well That seems a bit unfair on top of everything else!! Hope it wasn't too bad... Good luck for Thursday...
 

That is amazing!! Brilliant and very well done. I would be more than "pretty pleased"
 
As they always say on this forum.. 'tomorrow is another day'... forget it and move on...
 
Wonderful, amazing, brilliant, well done!!!!!!!
 
So you should be pleased.... it's very good news..
 

I'm sure lol - when I was there if you wanted a decent meal out you had to go somewhere like the Hotel Diplomat!
 
Had a terrible 17 hour day at office yesterday out of which 12 hours without food. Reached home and I was 5.7 but not adjusted. This was 2 in the night already so did not have after 2 hour reading as had to be back in office at 9 but fasting was 5.8 unadjusted again.
 
wow! well done you, you must feel fantastic, i've lost nearly 2 stone now and feel great for it, I know I wouldn't have done it if I wasn't diabetic though, I would have fallen by the wayside a long time ago, so maybe I've got something to thank diabetes for...............Anyway over 5st is a fantastic achievement you should give yourself a huge pat on the back
 
Just got back from sainsbugs and while there I thought I would take a butchers at the free from range, its got more carbs than the ordinary stuff!! As I have mentioned in previous posts me and bread have fell out big style so was hoping to find something low in carbs, I've ended up getting water biscuits/crackers from the normal aisles. hour and a half its taken us to do just a small shop. On the bright side pate is low in carbs, as is smoked pork sausage which hasn't got any
