Not good alliebee, you'll need to keep an eye on it in case it starts rising further but make sure you don't skip any meals, just stick to low carb choices.

I made the stupid mistake of skipping a meal yesterday and after not having lunch, I ended up swinging first low and then, after some inappropriate food choices, as high as 10,8 two hours after dinner.

So not the best of days but of course nowhere near as dramatic as yours.

I woke up today at 5,8.

I just rode the bike to and from the tennis club where I had my usual Saturday morning game.

With the exercise ,my levels are down to 4,6 and I am about to have my breakfast,

I am not making the same mistake again,
 
Thankyou. I totally agree with the above...I read your thread this morning and it struck a chord with me too...shall be testing today. .maybe I'm thinking the pneumo jab undermined me. The only thing I can think of

Take care Allibee and hope all is well today x
 
7.9 last Night; 4.9 this morning. Going out for breakfast so pre figure may be more. Normally eat straight after fasting test. Starving already :-( but breakfast will be worth the wait ;-)

5.3 for me after bedtime of 4.5
Neck a bit sore and the dressing is awkward but at least it's done now
 
A 4.2 for me this morning, so well in my range.

Yesterday afternoon I had a real craving for something very salty. I wanted pork scratchings. Of course, I had none in. So, off I toddled to the village shop. Noooo!! They had none either. Off to the other village shop, at the other end of the village where I was saved from a tantrum by not one, but two varieties if scratching. Of course, all of this was in the pouring ran, and as I hadn't done any other exercise yesterday, I had walked. Trust me, those scratchings didn't last long when I got them home! I ate the ordinary ones, because they were in the smaller bag, so I have saved the posher ones to share with Mr B. I very rarely have any kind of cravings, as we eat a really varied diet, so, within reason, if I have a craving, for something "allowable", I'll tend to go for it, or it'll grow into something bigger than it really is.

Today I need to go to town for a couple of things, and had forgotten until just now that the local fair is on this weekend, so it'll be chaos. I usually avoid town this weekend when I can, but I really should go today. Somehow, I'll manage to avoid the rides.

Have a good day playmates.

I've had several moles removed over the years Kimbo. I'm sure the discomfort won't last long.
