7.6 this morning. Saw doctor yesterday I have got a throat and chest infection been signed off for 2wks :-(. Will only eating small amounts of soft food harm my diabetes. Not hungry and can't swallow much.

Ahh...not good loulou but good you saw your gp. Keep warm and rest. Not too sure about your dilemma over food, hopefully someone can advise? Soft I guess could be scrambled eggs? Soup?
 
7.5 for me this morning... (5.3 before bed) ... think my liver is rebelling. Not doing anything different - may have to go back to having a snack before bed.
 
4.1 and I know precisely why.

Just another couple of day at work then weekend is upon us all again.

It's the weekend that makes Mon-Fri worthwhile.

Have a good day everyone.
 
Batch 44 has me at 5.7 this morning and was 5.7 at bed, ok but higher end of my range- could before like 5.2 though as only had 10gm carbs yesterday as had no coleslaw, didn't fancy it for once! Need to order my strips today, never got round to it yesterday as turned out to be a busy day all round
Waiting for 11am onwards to ring for my results.....:rolleyes:

I'm opposite to you john- full working weekend of 7.30am- 5pm and 7.30am-6 pm! ! Going to have to try and treat Friday as my weekend day!! Working next two Sundays following too, but more civilised 9-5 :oops:
 
Can't find the question nopw but my answer would be .... I saw a drop in my BS within days but not a stabilising for a couple of weeks.
(LCHF)

Kim, not sure I could do full time weekends any more, in my youth I worked 7 days a week, 12/14 hours a day for nearly 20 years.

Last 20 still working long hours but literally Mon-Fri. I must be a glutton for punishment or perhaps I still enjoy the buzz.

Keep well and make sure you enjoy your free time.

Same here @kimbo1962 but its my own business, so I choose to work weekends, plus its the nature of my work. Fridays are always busy too so I try and give myself 2 days off midweek and rather enjoy them, knowing others are working and I'm not!

Enjoy your day off tomorrow :)

For over 20 years hubby and I had a boarding kennels and cattery. We worked 7 days a week, 48 weeks a year, 14+ hours a day. Christmas Day included. I also had a normal career. We kept going until we reached 60 and then retired. Do we miss it? Do we hell. ;)
 
5.8 this morning but slept in late again, snotty head and cough and had slice of oat bran and linseed bread and butter around 2am when Moo wanted out.
