[QUOTE="Kentoldlady1, post: 1635300, member: 414280"] Morning all. Started 101kgs. Today. 67 kgs Lost. 34 kgs. Had a bad week. Granddaughter 3 has been in hospital with croup again. Fourth time this year and she is only 10 months old. Blue light ambulance from the out of hours doctor service. My poor daughter in law. I have had the other children and been staying at thier house to help because daddy works away from home. Her sister has also had it but is older so coped a bit better. But sleep is a distant memory. Last night was better. Home this morning for change of clothes and going back in a minute. Luckily they dont live too far away. Hopefully she is not going to get it again. She is home now and has an inhaler etc so hoping we can manage without going back to the ward. Anyway, I have not been eating well. So although I am down on last week for weight my bgl has been creeping up. Probably due to the chocolate I eat in the middle of the night, but not eating any dinner. Hoping to get back to normal this week coming. I am in the odd position of having lost weight and for the first time in my adult life not being very happy about it. Would much rather have had better bgl control. It scares me when it goes high and I know its partly because of something I have done ( chocolate) but mostly because of things outside my control ( stress, worry, fear and tiredness). This week has really made me realise how much we are at the mercy of diabetes. I take medication for other health problems, and if I keep to the tablets etc its mostly fine. Diabetes isnt really like that. Although I KNEW that, I didnt really see how it would affect me. Now I do . Sorry about the moaning. Nobody else to.tell that would really understand and I wouldnt dream of mentioning this to family. We have all had a really bad enough week! Hoping that she is over the worst. Last night was much better. Hoping you are all well. So much respect for all of you who cope with so much on a daily basis and manage to have a good life. [/QUOTE]
