@Hungry19 my little converter tells me that is US 225. I am a scaredy cat. I’d call my dr. If I thought I were dehydrated (occasionally I do let that happen) I’d then drink a lake, then test in an hour unless the dr sent me to ER (I have no idea what a dr would do!!! I am not a medical professional and am simply telling you what I’d do. and lolol hours after I wrote that, I saw that “walk n water” was not a typo for walk On water, meaning pass a miracle!How did the rest of your day go?
@Chook I hate when avocados are like that!! They are up to a dollar apiece now. Your meal sounds good to me!
I just ran a home HbA1c test. It said 5.9, which is .5 lower than what the dr said a couple weeks ago; still pre-d but closer to the NON-d line than the T2 line. I am going to use a different lab next time.
@shelley262 hope you can enjoy your trip?
Good good news @BibaBee ! I am so sorry Mr B had to have extra anxiety. And of course the repeat in just 4 weeks.
@Emma_369 happy for your daughter! She will have a ball, and anyway you don’t want to be driving to competitions every weekend now do you?
@Tipetoo Paw paw is papaya? Not here in Virginia! It’s a native fruit that tastes sort of like banana custard. I had fun looking that one up to find the connection. There was mentioned a type of yellow papaya which in Australia is called papaw (in Virginia Papaw is granddaddy! )
Hi @ziggy_w ! Glad to have you back
It really is miserable isn’t it! Today is the day school were late opening the doors to let the kids in. The whole playground was full of soaked through children & parents. Took me almost an hour to dry out when I got to work - actually think i could have wrung out my skin never mind my clothes - although not sure that would have been entirely acceptable behaviour in the officeBed on Sunday 6.9 FBG 6.5. Back on the school run. No 2 was dithering so almost had to drag him along the road. .

Crossing lady was telling me that was the same Mrs Angry that used her car to nudge her because she was ushering the kiddies across the road (at a crossing and lights red no less). This woman needs locked up.Wholeheartedly agree with your comments about impatient drivers and packs of cyclists who spread out over the whole carriageway.
At least Mrs Angry got her just desserts.
Back on the food theme I’ll be interested to see how that pastry turns out in the end.
Been in Cambridge many a time with a car when I still worked (Oxford too) but I stuck to the hotels outside the city and work was in the business parks. Never took a car into Cambridge itself.Breakfast and Mid morning; Tea;
Lunch time: About 20 hrs after last food so hungry - (no idea why I feel guilty for that) cocoa, piece of brisket to finish it, small piece cheese, 2 hard boiled eggs Afternoon - 16.20 ish Lamb shoulder, roast veggies (cherry toms, portobello mushrooms, kale, broccoli, fennel). Made a point of not having gravy but that was a mistake - do need to solve that problem. There will be tea. I want to find joy in this WOE (ingredients are too good not to be properly valued) - all a little too mechanical trying to keep meals LC rather than eating for pleasure right now. Anyone else ever hit that kind of wall? No? Just me then) Probably not helped by recently feeling tired more than usual - really hoping that is tree pollen related and will pass. Also feel guilty when I keep reading other people say they are stuffed, feel satisfied or able to fast and feel fine - did that too much too close together last year bit of a failure.
O/T if cyclists ain't your thing avoid Cambridge and the flat fens like the plague.
That made me laugh. You can always get a ready supply in Nursery and P1 where infestations spread like wildfire.Evening all - posting now as first chance I’ve had all day and may not get back on till late
No B
L - 2 babybel and handful of nuts
D- hoping to get a couple of sausages, bacon, mushrooms and eggs on the go in a bit!
Edited - nuts not nits although they’re probably lower in carbs than the nuts!
My dear departed brother felt the same. His started with a laser treatment gone wrong. He nearly totally lost the sight in one eye. Thank goodness he only had one eye done. They had to admit him to the eye pavilion as he had to get injections into the eye every 30 mins for one week. Even had to wake him every 30 mins at night. He was exhausted by the time he got out. After that it was injections every 3 months but he said the same - you put up with it.Yes, it's not pleasant at all for him, but when the alternative is losing your sight, it becomes more bearable than you might think. This will be the 9th lot of injections since July last year. Ironically it is the diagnostic tests and consultation beforehand that he finds most difficult due to his anxiety. He's always fearful he will be given bad news. Generally our experience of his treatment has been good, but he had a shockingly bad run in with an awful Doctor last year which was traumatic to say the least.
And me!Me too!

@BibaBee. I just ordered some via Amazon. More a present for Mrs Listlad.My wife adds it to rice to make a chocolate breakfast. She’s like that though.
Very rich it would seem.
Okay thanks. Another good tip. I didn’t know we could buy it in the UK.
Maybe crossing people should be issued with cameras front and back to gather evidence. Never any need to be that impatient - plan your day, easy as.Crossing lady was telling me that was the same Mrs Angry that used her car to nudge her because she was ushering the kiddies across the road (at a crossing and lights red no less).

Proof is an issue as witnesses couldn't confirm for sure. I've put my dash cam on now. Woman is deranged.Nooo! I can’t believe that! Did the crossing lady report her?
How do you make the chia pudding? With milk? I use chia seeds quite a bit and make it with milk but wondered if there were other approaches. I suppose coconut milk would work?Back home after a long and stressful day. We left at 12.30 for the Eye Hospital and didn't get back home until after 6pm. They ended up running behind after the air conditioning broke in the treatment rooms, which meant suspending all injections until it was fixed. The whole process usually takes between 2-3 hours, but this time it took over 3 and a half hours! Mr B was so anxious with all the waiting around. Anyway, the good news is that his right eye is still stable and there has been some more improvement in his left eye (the good one). The bad news is that this means we have to back again in four weeks! Food today has been a tad topsy turvy.
Breakfast: Coffee and cream
Brunch: Bacon, sausage, black pudding, eggs, tomato and mushrooms. Coffee.
Dinner: Couldn't be bothered to cook, so we had chia pudding with raspberries and almonds. Followed by a luxury hot choc with Willie's Cacao Peruvian Black, almond milk and cream. We always have this on treatment day....it lifts the spirits.
