Good evening fam. B=bulletproof tea, then another tea with lactofree milk - bye bye lacto free. Much more tea - there was a plan/need. Lunch = lemon tea and food porn in Gail's bakery Cambridge with Katz Deli type moments in nearby Decathlon. Evening was more tea and Ox cheek casserole atop raw spinach then nibbled some cheese and ate 1 row Green and Blacks sea salt stuffage and 1 row Chocologic Belgian chocolate. Lots of fluid as part of camera in intimate places this afternoon. Went well and doc said surgeon did a neat job - see me in 3 months. A14 fluid all the way home so all good.
Thanks. Done properly with anaesthetic in the right amount and place the procedure is much less unpleasant. ATM pleased I made it plain I would only go to Addenbrookes. Yes, @PenguinMum I am Tee 2 as well.So pleased all is well after your horrible sounding procedure today. That’s great news.

Winnie - are you taking any Diabetes meds? If so, what do you take?@ Winnie-the-Pooh : you are doing so well my dear️, your BG has been great ! I’m proud of u .
Today breakfast: an egg with dine cheese and 1-2 spoon of beans , and black coffee
Lunch : a sausage and some green salad
Snack : two tiny microscopic chocolates that to avoid a hypo when BG was 4 .
Dinner : will make chili and salad .
BG : all day about 70-80 which is between 4 to 4.5.
@Winnie-the-Pooh : you deserve a reward . You need warm hats ? Why you don’t get one my dear ?

Personally, on no meds, I have never,"treated" anything under 4, unless I have felt off, which is incredibly rare.
I go under 4 most days for a while. Fine by me.
I take metformin ER , twice a day . I get dizzy and fear to collapse . That is why I treat it. Today I was at work preparing to leave and my commute involves taking a long bus ride followed by a walk .
So I felt it was safe to treat it. But reading your post makes me feel better about it. Maybe on a weekend and in a safe controlled environment when I’m not alone I have to try not treating a safe 4.5 and see what happens . Thanks for the tip !
I keep a honey jar under my bed in case and have a GCM that sends alarm.
I wonder if my work contributes to my hypos . It is very mathematical/analytical and I need to think very hard all day so I consume lots of sugar ( brain uses more sugar than muscles ). Sometimes I feel I can no longer walk It’s bad because treating it involves having sugar ( that I want to avoid ).
Indeed, my morning fasting blood glucose can be around 3.9 after not eating or drinking anything but water for 9 hours, and I feel fine. But I am taking no meds. Heck before lunch today I was 4.1 and felt fine, and that was after two bus rides and a bit of walking to and back from the GP.
Honestly I don't think of it as impressive, it's taken a heck of a lot of work, and I am still recovering from two months of strict keto. It ruined my gut, and raised my liver enzyme. The 3.9 fasting blood glucose was also about two weeks in to eating oatmeal and yogurt for breakfast, so I think that says something good about it. I am slowly adding back for low GI carbs, after testing my response to them and keeping detailed records. I know I will never be able to eat potatoes, or tropical fruit, or white rice. But I can cope with white corn tortillas, rolled oats and berries. Looking forward to testing how boiled sweet potato will affect me on the weekend, and I plan to try out quinoa and beans in the future.Wow ! Impressive! You have FPG = 3.9 with no meds ? You deserve a reward.

Yes nothing increase my bg as much as potato. Just 1-2 fry or one spoon if mash potato and ny bg is to the roof . White bread does the same , maybe not as bad. But I can have rice . I miss bread but potato is not a huge heart breaker . Bread is and I’m super fussy about bread so substitutes won’t work
Well done with the diet .
