and us men thought we were the only ones ever to be misunderstood !Fasting p this morning to 6.7 - probably due to stress - sodding $%&* husband thinks I should oblige him and eat cornflour because it's more convenient for him if he wants to thicken food- my refusal to accept this resulted in him more or less telling me I was clueless low carb wise.
I expect my blood pressure's through the roof now too.... And NO - I don't feel like being sensible and calming down just yet!

An analysis of sugar levels in cider, sherry and spirits found that some drinks contained as many as five teaspoons of sugar in a single serving. By contrast wines and beer contained significantly smaller quantities.

Yes - but mainly when they're ignorant, bloody minded, instant expert, know-it-alls. However I do find some of them quite human particularly when I get a bit of understanding and sympathy from them...Men.....don't you just hate them sometimes.........
And mine tho I did have then down to 5,s awhile agowhen my blood sugars grow up, they want to be just like Jacks'.
& i am SURE they will be back there very soon!!And mine tho I did have then down to 5,s awhile ago
Ditto!5.7 this morning - still on antibiotics so they aren't affecting it too much.
Unfortunately I think the inside maybe allowable....however the pastry is to die for....but given this condition I don't think I'm prepared to pay THAT price
and as for the chips that I used to scoop the innards out with....hmmm
I can...I will....I'll tryStep away from the pies!!!!
Morning gabe,much better figure this morning, well done :Fasting 9.0 mmo
How could you think I was a wee white doggy? I was always a rather beautiful Chinchilla cat - green eyes, black eyeliner and a double white fur coat.
