4.3

I think I'm no longer type two certainly not type one but now type three quarters and a bit with all these good readings or .... is a juggernaught of diabetic mayhem going to hit me out of the blue I keep thinking.

 

[Mike d]

Hm, 6.0 this morning. I did have a small roast potato and roast sweet potato with my Sunday roast yesterday with the intention of testing after dinner, so 5.1 before but by the time I remembered I had to test again it was 3 hours past Just today left on the diet as tomorrow I will be on a jet plane (actually three different ones and a total of 16 hours in the air!).

6.1 after I had lain waiting for two hours for Mr E to fetch morning cuppa and monitor. Shoddy service and I will be complaining to the manager.

It is so difficult... I keep small tins of BabyBel and 85% chocolate in my bag... baby Snickers bars too for real emergencies... Don't order the Diabetic Meal for goodness' sake... I usually order the Hindu meal - if you like curry it's always good, but leave the rice.. Have a safe and uneventful trip... don't forget to wiggle your legs and feet around..

6.4 this morning after a bedtime reading of 5.2.

Thanks Susikav I might give it a go ,I did buy a nutribullet at the beginning of the year you know when you are full of good intentions lol .

I know exactly what you mean - cupboards full of stuff - including a spirializer, to make pasta from courgettes (which works like a dream actually) - but I do love my Bullet and use it every day... I love the hot chocolate I make at night - I use the little coins of pure cacao, hot water, Stevia, cream, coconut oil and a tsp of peanut butter... lush, and it seems to help my morning liver dump best of all... Unforch, when I am away in hotels I cannot do it... I have a plan to buy a milk frother and pack it next time, along with a small tupperware of stevia, coconut oil and cacao... I always have a carton of cream in the fridge for my espresso and this morning I had raspberries, blueberries and cream from the breakfast bar - lush... never thought of it before.. I'm definitely getting rid of the diabetic brain fog slowly...

It's so frustrating when you've been so good, isn't it? The guys here keep saying that evening exercise helps - one hour after eating? I just cannot seem to bring myself to cook, wash up, tidy up the left-overs AND go walkies on my machine when I'm still quite full... Besides wanting to catch up with the Rugby/Tennis/Formula 1 - or crime drama I've missed... I'm sure I should though...
